Harley Davidson decided to honor our troops by dressing MARISA MILLER as a sexy, old-school pinup girl and having her straddle a bike. Yeah, it's for the troops . . . but ultimately, this is a gift for all of us. You'd know Marisa from the cover of last year's "Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue" and for her hard work as a Victoria's Secret angel.
Missouri now has a 'no texting while driving' law and there's a very good reason. This video should be mandatory for all driver's education classes. Watch the video then tell your friends, tell your family. Stay Alive.
On Tuesday, an unidentified 17-year-old boy was digging in the sand at the beach in Charlestown, Rhode Island (--in the southwest part of the state).When the hole got to be about eight-feet deep, the sand collapsed on top of him, and nearly buried him alive.
--Fortunately, rescue workers were able to pull the boy free, and he was rushed to the hospital, where he was treated and released.
(It looks like he's slowly being digested over a thousand years in the belly of the Sarlacc from "Return of the Jedi".)
A STAND-UP COMEDIAN IS BEING SUED BY HER MOTHER-IN-LAW BECAUSE SHE MADE HER THE BUTT OF TOO MANY JOKES:
For as long as stand-up comedians have been telling jokes, they've been mining their personal lives for new material.And, let's face it . . . jokes about the in-laws are comedy gold.
--But now, a stand-up comedian from Los Angeles named Sunda Croonquist is being sued by her mother-in-law, Ruth Zafrin, because she says Sunda's routine is filled with racist lies which have publicly defamed her character.
--Now, to be fair, Sunda . . . who is half-black and half-Swedish . . . does go a little heavy on the jokes about her husband's Jewish family.And Sunda says she'll drop any parts of her routine that the Zafrins find offensive.
--But the lawsuit also seeks unspecified damages, which Sunda refuses to pay.
(Take a look at a photo of Sunda, her husband Mark, and her mother-in-law Ruth.)
(--You can check out some of Sunda's stand-up routine here.)

TWO MURDER SUSPECTS WERE ARRESTED AFTER THEY STOLE A "BAIT CAR" CONTROLLED BY THE POLICE:
It's tough work being a police officer.So cops have got to love it when the idiot criminals make their job just a little bit easier, like THESE clowns.
--Recently, the New Orleans Police Department received a grant from the city that allowed them to run a bunch of sting operations they've wanted to try out . . . including one that involves leaving out a "bait car" that's loaded up with surveillance cameras.
--Basically, the officers leave a car unattended.Then, when a criminal steals it, the officers flip a kill switch which turns off the car's engine, allowing them to arrest the thief.
--Anyway, the New Orleans Police Department ran their "bait car" operation yesterday, and they managed to catch two guys named Deloyd Jones and Byron Jones.
--But the real beauty is that Deloyd was wanted as a suspect in a murder investigation, and Byron was wanted as a suspect in an attempted murder.And in the surveillance video, you can actually see them passing a GUN to one another.
(--Check out surveillance video of these two idiots in action here . . .)
Okay, people, the contest is on:The best "MICHAEL JACKSON IS STILL ALIVE" conspiracy theory has begun.

--A video has appeared online of a coroner's van pulling into what looks like an underground garage.
--When it stops, someone gets out, goes to the back of the van and opens one of the doors.
--Then someone whose identity is obviously being shielded gets out of the back of the van . . . and the other person takes them through a door and out of sight.
--The claim being made is that the person getting out of the back of the van is Michael . . . and that this video was shot right after he ALLEGEDLY died and his body was removed from his rented home.
--In other words, he FAKED HIS DEATH.
--The person who posted the clip says, quote, "I checked the license plate number and it looks like the King of Pop is jumping out of the same van his dead body has been in.
--"I got the original video tape from a trustworthy source.I know him for years.And I am sure it's real and Michael is alive."

Chances are you've seen the video of DAVID LETTERMAN talking up BILLY CURRINGTON'S song, "People Are Crazy", on last Monday's "Late Show".But just in case you haven't, you really should. Letterman called the song "absolute perfection".He also said, "If I were the people running country music, I would shut it down now because you're not going to get any better than this."
(--Here's the video of Letterman talking about "People Are Crazy" . . . as well as Billy's performance of the song later in the show.)
ROB ZOMBIE hated the trailer that the studio released for "Halloween 2"which comes out this weekend.He thought it made the movie look like a lame, '80s slasher flick.
--Rob had cut his own trailer . . . but the studio rejected it.Now it's online and it really is better than the trailers you're seeing on TV and in theaters.Rob swears he's not the one who leaked it, though.(--Either way, you can check it out here .)
THERE'S A 91-YEAR-OLD FEMALE DRUMMER IN CALIFORNIA WHO STILL PLAYS REGULAR GIGS!
Once most people hit a certain age, they start doing what The Man tells them they're supposed to be doing.But not 91-year-old Jerrie Thill of Studio City, California. That's because Jerrie is a DRUMMER, and even though she has to lug her oxygen tank wherever she goes, Jerrie still plays regular gigs around Southern California.
(--Check out a music video featuring Jerrie on the drums here.I'm going to level with you:The song's not great, but it's entertaining to see this old broad rocking out . . .)
(--And check out a video taken at one of Jerrie's gigs last year here.The song starts at 1:00 . . .)
