The backstory remains unclear, but as they say, a photo speaks 1000 words.
Maybe Toby Maguire has been beating up hookers again. He told me he was going to give that shit up. Damn you, Toby! Why can’t you just snort coke off the hookers asses like every other normal human-being. You have to resort to violence?!
Are you a frequent law offender? Next time you’re caught up to no good, you can give the friendly coppers a helping hand by wearing this Mugshot T-Shirt. This stylish tee will save you some time in the slammer, getting you processed and out on bail in no time.
No more delays means no more excuses. The cops can’t use the mugshot as an excuse to gobble down donuts at your expense anymore. I might have to grab one of these, even if it’s strictly for the LOLz.
Has everyone in North Carolina lost their sense of humor? It certainly wouldn’t surprise me.
A North Carolina State University student named Joseph Carnevale was charged with larceny for creating a monster on the side of the road. He used a bunch of construction barrels and lights to make it. Look at how cool that thing is! While I understand that you can’t go around taking other people’s property, you’d think someone in the legal system would have been a sport about it.
So as you’ve probably read, there was a big earthquake over in L’Aquila, Italy. It’s looking pretty grim, too, with a 6.3 magnitude and dozens of entire towns reduced to rubble. Who could have possibly predicted something as catastrophic as this? A seismologist? Psh, keep dreaming.
Actually, wait. Yeah. That is what happened. Several weeks ago, Italian seismologist Giampaolo Giuliani predicted the quake and began warning people, which prompted the city’s mayor to arrest him for “spreading alarm.” Sure enough, the authorities thought they did the right thing and ended up fucking over a whole town, possibly a country.
Either way, I’m sure this is the last time Italy will not heed an early warning of a natural disaster.
Remember Kevin Cogill? He’s the Guns N’ Roses fan that leaked Chinese Democracy songs early and now is paying big time for it. His favorite band hates him and to top it all off he’s facing five years jail time just for promoting Guns N’ Roses’ latest album.
Now Kevin has agreed to a plea bargain in the case and last month, his charge dropped from a felony to a misdemeanor. Right now, he’s only looking at a year jail time, but it’s all going to come down to the judge’s decision. If that judge isn’t Axl Rose, Kevin is in the clear. Otherwise, be prepared to hear some real lousy singing from both ends of the courtroom.
If you’re a fan of Guns N’ Roses, it’s more likely than not that if you aren’t the guy signing Axl Rose’s non-existent checks then they hate you. They all hate you. Yes, even Slash hates you. Remember that blogger who leaked their latest suckfest, Chinese Democracy? That was an honest mistake any fan could have made. Well, now he faces a long term of jail time for simply being a fan and helping to promote Guns N’ Roses.
They sure needed it according to Eric Garland of BigChampagne, a company that tracks file sharing activity. Garland brings to light the fact that no file sharing of Chinese Democracy ever took place until Kevin Cogill leaked it and then got arrested. Since his arrest, Chinese Democracy has become the whore of torrent downloading. The question on my mind is why is the FBI wasting time with this and what does the band think of Kevin? Scratch that, no one really cares what Guns N’ Roses thinks.
Chinese Democracy is the Duke Nukem Forever of the music industry. It’s been over 10 years in the making and everyone has lost interest since seeing Axl Rose’s last performance. Then, Los Angeles based blogger Kevin Cogill leaks nine songs from the album which eventually leads his site to crash from high traffic shortly thereafter. No one is sure how he obtained access to the songs but the “band” was pissed and demanded the songs be taken down.
But, the damage had already been done. Users who obtained the tracks had made them available on file-sharing sites. Guns N’ Roses: owned.
Earlier this week Cogill posted a plea for legal help on his blog, writing that, “more and more each day, it looks like I may be indicted.”
Cogill was released after signing a $10,000 signature bond and is scheduled to appear at a preliminary hearing on September 17. Things are not looking good for Kevin as he faces a judicial system of a Chinese Democracy. And here I sat thinking this album would never see the light of day.
