I hate you non-smokers with all of my little black fucking heart, you obnoxious, self-righteous, whining little fucks, my biggest fear, if I quit smoking, is that I'll become one of you.

Bombs! Guns! Dope! Coke! Spiders! Lizards! Alligators! Scorpions! A Man That Lives With His Mom! A Garage Full of Lawn Mowers! Oh the horror! Oh the humanity!
OK, so the guy was actually growing pot in his back yard, and the cops did find coke on a mirror, but the rest is just a fnord-fest. The "bombs" turned out to be some sort of flare things made outta model-rocket parts. The "zoo of dangerous animals" that one cop claims was guarding the drugs and stolen goods turns out to be an alligator (I'm guessing about a 10 inch baby?), geckos, two scorpions and a tarantula (which the article mentions "are venomous").
Uh, scorpions and tarantulas are about as poisonous as bees, OK, maybe wasps... I don't even know what to say about the concept of attack geckos.

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
