Sick Rockers, Getting Wasted, AND shootin' hoop with Ducktape and rope!

• I start today on a rather "down" note regarding the current obsticales placed in front of Mr. Paul Stanley and Ozzy Osbourne healthwise. Sure, these guys may want to "Rock until they drop", but old age is a knock, knock, knocking at their chamber door.

  Paul Stanley of KISS fame had to be hauled away by EMS from a concert the other night due to a racing heart. In fact, the heartbeat was off the charts. Meanwhile, not one to upset the fans, Gene Simmons took over on vocals and closed out the show. Obviously Gene wasn't too worried. Think what you want about these guys...while others are getting DUI's, busted for drugs and other stuff, the only sin that Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley ever took part in was an addiction to sex AND nope, nothing wrong with that. We wish Paul a speedy recovery...time for a new record too, isn't it?
• OZZY is on the sicklist too. After having trouble walking onstage at his annual "Ozzfest", he was rushed to the local hospital where it was discovered he had a blood clot in his leg which was taken care of right away. He's due to resume headlining the tour as soon as tonight. Sharon Osbourne is keeping this information under wraps. When this happened with Ozzy performing, nobody could tell there was a problem with the guy. He was talking crazy, acting silly, and missed some of the lyrics. At this point, no concertgoers know if Ozzy is drunk or in some kind of pain. Yeah, you get well too Oz!
• If I had a few million to throw away foolishly, I'd write a check to NASA. It sounds like their partying is literally out of this world! I don't know what's going on there however, two shuttles were lost in flight. Maybe a conspiracy theory but, isn't it time to re-open the files on these two things and put mechanical failure aside?
• Here's a lesson for New York Knicks' Eddy Curry. The former Thornwood Thunderbird and Chicago Bull star painted a dark picture of his experience while at his Burr Ridge home the other night. Some burglers managed to bust into his home and tie up him, his wife, and driver with Duck Tape and rope. While all this was going on, one of the suspects went through the house searching for money, jewelry, and other valuables. Something isn't right about this. Details are being kept under lock and key as NBA Investigators try and slice and dice how this happened. This is typical of someone like Eddy who sees a check from the NBA with a lot of zeroes and flashes around all the cash. Congrats Eddy! Maybe when the salesman from ADT alarms goes door to door in your neck of the woods, open up the door and have a listen to his salespitch.
