Appetite for Destruction... of an Automobile


From TMZ.com


You'd think with a name like Axl -- dude would have some respect for a quality automobile -- instead Mr. Rose is accused of beating the hell out of a $192k Bentley. The Guns N' Roses singer is being sued over a 2006 Bentley Flying Spur -- a pretty badass ride.

According to a lawsuit filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Axl leased the car through Bentley Financial Services back in 2005 -- then flaked on $73,976.42 in payments and fees.

But here's the rub ... Bentley claims when Axl returned the car (several months past the actual due date) -- the car had some serious damage including:

-- Cracked windshield
-- Two damaged tires
-- Broken glass on the left rear tail light
-- Two dented doors
-- Gouged bumper

Plus, Bentley says Axl turned in a "mismatched spare key" and a "broken remote key" -- and he was 42,397 miles over his contracted limit.

Bentley wants Axl to fork over the $73k ASAP ... including $91 for a missing key.

The Rent Is Too Damn High Party


YES. With two weeks left before the November elections we're all at our breaking point with the political blah blah that's seemingly everywhere (radio too). What we need is a simple message... what we need is Jimmy McMillan. Sporting the most awesome facial hair ever worn by a gubernatorial candidate ... karate master/Vietnam veteran McMillan stole the show at the NY debates last night with one simple catchphrase ... "The rent is too damn high."

Happy 25th NES


On Oct. 18, 1985, exactly 25 years ago, the Nintendo Entertainment System was released in the United States with a limited batch of consoles in New York City. The launch took place two years after it debuted in Japan.

The video game console affectionally called "NES" forever changed the gaming world. It has been Nintendo's second most successful system ever with 61 million sold (only to the Wii's 70 million). It preceded other popular consoles like the Super Nintendo, SEGA Genesis and Sony PlayStation.

After Nintendo released the NES in North America in 1983, it launched the Gameboy in 1989, Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991, Nintendo 64 in 1996, Nintendo GameCube in 2001, and the Wii in 2006.

By December 2009, more than 3.5 billion NES games had been sold. Here are some of the most popular of all time! Vote on your favorites, add yours if it's not here, and reflect in the comments section about your best memories with the NES.
