Those Who Fail to Learn from Ozzy . . .

You've heard about Predatorgate by now, where some sicko/republican from Florida has been busted for getting his freak on by instant-messaging underage interns.

Certainly not the first time a holier-than-thou conservative has been shown to be sickier-than-thou. In the 1980s, Jimmy Swaggart earned some scratch by castigating rockers such as Ozzy Osbourne for their sinful ways. He then used that scratch to purchase services from prostitutes. Once the scandal hit the press, Ozzy opened a can of musical and visual whoopass on him. Enjoy.

How does it feel to be called-out by the Prince of Darkness?

Ever since he started the O'Reilly feud, Keith Olbermann has to put up with it all the time.

In other news, Malibu Stacy and I watched "Some Kind of Monster" this weekend. It was Metallicastic!

Couldn't agree more about Lars, and i haven't even seen the movie. you can hear it in his floor toms.

Ha! I'd forgotten that although long-time Ozzy bassist Bob Daisley recorded the studio tracks, a bass player from even farther in Ozzy's past often toured with him, and he's featured in this video. Of course, the mustache gives it away.

I already knew Lars was a punk. The thing that shocked me most about SKOM was just how much of a fey little girl the guitarist is.

I'd like to object to your characterization of Kirk Hammet, OM, but "fey" describes him pretty well.
