Man Pleads Guilty for DUI on Motorized Recliner
Here's the article, but I'll give you the quick version. A man in Minnesota plead guilty this past week to driving his motorized La-Z-Boy recliner while under the influence. According to the story, 62-year old Dennis LeRoy left the bar on his motorized chair after a few (or eight or nine) beers, attempted to drive home, but hit a parked car and was arrested with a BAC three times the legal limit. Now, I think the real question in regards to this story is not so much "What was he doing trying to drive home after eight or nine beers?" or even, "Why does he have a motorized La-Z-Boy?" but, "Dude, where can I get one of those?!?"

Some Halloween Fun w/ The Ghost of the Lizard King?
Is this the ghost of Jim Morrison haunting his grave site in Paris? You be the judge. The photo was taken in 1997 by rock historian, Brett Meisner, but it wasn't until 2002 that he noticed the ghostly figure behind him, curiously hanging in Morrison's famous arms-outstretched pose. The photo was recently authenticated, and is being featured in a new book on ghost pictures. Not only that, but Brett has almost gone so far as to suggest that the photo is sort of cursed. Click on the article if you want to read the whole story of the photo and the strange things that have happened since it was taken.

Happy Fleet Week!
So, it's Fleet Week. I want to take a quick second to give a big welcome to all the men and women of the US Navy, and other branches of the US military who will be in the Bay Area this weekend. Respect. If you're out on the town and happen so see someone in a uniform, make sure to buy them a drink. No matter what your politics, they put their ass on the line for all of us. Of course, this is also a big weekend for the women of the Bay Area as well. They'll all be getting dolled up and heading out to the bars in North Beach to try to land themselves a sailor. Good luck, gals. Sailors, beware; our Nor Cal women are fierce.
So, welcome to all the members of the US military who will be in town this weekend. I hope everybody has a fun Fleet Week.

Credit where credit is due...
(Warning - this blog entry contains man-boob!)
I'll admit it. I don't know a damn thing about picking football games. Rock 'n' roll, beer, chicks, history, literature, philosophy, cars; I'll take any of those in a Jeopardy category, but not football. I just don't follow it closely enough. "But Jaeger," you ask, "how is it that you're doing so well in the Bone Fooball Pool?" Well, Boneheads, it's all due to my buddy, and football guru, Jer Himself "The Vegas Yeti". You may have heard me reference him on the air, but I wanted to take some space here to give him credit for my picks in this year's Bone Football Pool. So, here he is - the game-picking guru and "Vegas Yeti" Himself, Jer.
Thanks, Bro!
(Yes, this is the man I'm taking football betting advice from. Scary, isn't it?)

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Metallica (But Were Afraid to Ask)
What was up with cutting the hair, and that whole image change with the Load album? Was James really down with that cover, and Kirk and Lars kissing in those photos? How about more talk on the Dave Mustaine issue? It's all here, in a pretty cool, andf rank, interview that James did with Classic Rock Magazine. Click Here for the article.

Been (Not Yet) Caught Stealing
This is funny. Well, not to the officer who left his keys in the car, but for the rest of us, I think it's pretty entertaining, am I right? Me, I'm blaming Perry Farrell. He did admit to doing a bit of stealin' back in the day, and he looked like he was on some serious drugs last Friday night (of course, when does Perry Farrell NOT seem like he's on some sort of drug). Anyway, getting down to the story, apparently someone stole a Mountain View police car last Friday night after the NIN/Jane's Addiction show. Whoever it was did some joyriding up and down Shoreline Blvd before speeding off. The car has yet to be recovered. Here's the link to the article so you can read the full, entertaining story, and the complete list of what was in the stolen police car. And, the song that may have inspired it all:

Question - Does a Horse Count as a Sober Driver if he Hasn't Been Drinking?
Here's some ol' fashioned, good-natured humor for a Saturday morning. Check out this article about a guy in Colorado who was cited with a DUI for riding his horse while intoxicated. He wasn't just riding around in some field though, Mr. Brian Drone was ticketed while riding his horse in a strip mall. Especially entertaining is the part in the article when the police explain that they didn't know what to do with the horse once they'd arrested the rider. My only question is - couldn't you make the argument that the horse was the designated sober driver? If you happen to be a lawyer, or in law enforcement, and know the answer to this question, please feel free to e-mail me the answer. jaeger@thebone.net.

Jaeger's Naked On-Air Protest in Support of Nude Swiss Hiking.
I don't know if you saw the article this morning in the news, but apparently a small state in Switzerland has banned nude hiking in the Alps. Here's the article, "Swiss heartland voters ban nude hiking ." What's the world coming to when a guy (or gal) can't climb a mountain in the buck? So, in support of nude hikers everywhere, I'm broadcasting naked today. Check the webcam, if you think I'm bluffing. Pictures can be found on my Facebook page.

What Am I Thankful For...? I'm Thankful for F**kin' Rock 'n' Roll!
What does that Argent/Kiss song say? God Gave Rock 'n' Roll To You. You damned right 'e did. So, let's all be thankful for rock 'n' roll this Thanksgiving. Because no matter how s**tty life gets, rock 'n' roll is always there for you. When you're livin' high and havin' a good time, rock 'n' roll cranks up the volume and parties with you. When you're down low, rock 'n' roll puts its hand on your shoulder and commiserates, because it knows how you feel. Long live Rock 'n' Roll!

Fun With Chinese Democracy...And Axl Rose.
So tonight is the big night. The official Chinese Democracy listening party is happening tonight at Mezzanine, giving us the first chance to hear the final version of the low legendary album.
Finally, after 15 years.
Chinese Democracy isn't hitting stores until Sunday, but already the music press is having some fun with it. VH1 put together a list of some of Axl's greatest TV moments, including their first appearance on Headbanger's Ball (when they trashed the set), Axl challenging Vince Neil to a fight, and both performances of "Welcome to the Jungle at the VMA's (both the good one and the bad one). Click here for a link to the article if you want to read the stories.
And with more Guns n' Roses fun, MusicRadar put together a list of "33 Insane Facts About Chinese Democracy." Here are a few of them:
1. It's taken 1/3 of Axl's life to record "Chinese Democracy"
2. It was inspired by the Dalai Lama
3. It's taken eight guitar players
4. Shaquille O'Neal freestyle rapped over one track (it didn't make it in the final cut)
5. The Offspring considered stealing the title "Chinese Democracy" for their 2003 CD, but decided to name it "Splinter" instead.
6. The final tab for the album is over $13 million (a little over $900,000 per song)
7. Dr. Pepper is offering a free Dr. Pepper to everyone in the US on the day of it's release following a promise they made if the album came out this year.
8. Buckethead recorded his parts from a makeshift chicken coop erected in the studio.
9. Brian May and Dave Navarro recorded solos for the album but they never made it into the final mixes.
Those are just some of the facts. If you want to read the rest of them (the ones about wolf-poop and pornography and other celebrities), click here for the link to the article.

#126. Judge a stripper contest.
Thanks to all the folks at Centerfolds here in San Francisco for all their hospitality last night, and for inviting myself, Baby Huey, Joe Rock and Sully to serve as judges for their 2009 Showgirl of the Year contest. It was an awesome time with some very beautiful women. Check out the winner... (just kidding)

"Miller And A Muffin" Mark
I referenced my buddy "Miller And A Muffin" Mark on my show on Saturday and I said I'd post the story of how he got his nickname up here on the Bonesite, so here it is. Mark is a guy I've known for a long time, and he's a really great dude; one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Mark loves the booze and loves to party, though.
The story of how he got his name comes from the morning after a night of partying while I was at San Francisco State. Mark and my other buddy Mike came over to hang out in The City for the weekend and on Saturday night we ended up over at Park Merced raging it up with some chicks I knew who lived over there. We crashed at the girls' apartment and when we woke up Sunday morning everybody was hurting pretty bad.
Mark was looking especially haggard. He came in the room looking totally scruffy, complete with messed up hair, 5 o'clock shadow, and a burn-hole in the front pocket of his flannel from having dropped a lit joint in it the night before. As we all crawled out of bed and off the floor to make coffee, Mark decided that he wanted to walk down to the corner store and get a "recovery beer." So, we gave him detailed directions on how to get there, and he set off.
Two hours later, Mark was still gone. The store was only 2 blocks away, so we were kind of worried, but finally Mark re-appeared. We asked him where he'd gone, and he said that he hadn't been able to find the corner store, so he kept walking until he found a shopping center (Stonestown). He said he walked around for a while looking for somewhere to buy some booze and finally found a little coffee cart in the basement of Nordstrom's that had beer.
"Well, what did you get?" someone asked.
"I walked up to the cart and ordered a Miller and a muffin." We all started laughing our asses off. He had a confused look on his face and said,
"What?"
"Dude, your scruffy lookin' ass walked into a Nordstrom's at 9:00am on a Sunday morning and ordered a Miller and a muffin from their coffee cart..."
He thought for a second and then said, "Yeah... now that you mention it, the girl did look at me kinda funny."
Ever since then, he's known as "Miller And A Muffin" Mark.
