Nutjob, Ozzy Osbourne has joined the growing chorus of celebrities, and Americans in general who refuse to take responsibilty for their actions. Osbourne, who is clearly a heavy drug user (watch one episode of that ridiculous MTV show, then try to tell me one word he just said), says he was addicted to painkillers- a drug regimen of 42 pills a day...but, it wasn't his fault! He blames his doctor for overprescribing the medication. Now, if we can just get Ozzy's doctor to tell him to jump off a cliff...

THEY'RE NOT TIC-TACS: Ozzy Osbourne says his bizarre behavior on MTV's The Osbournes was the result of a 42-pill-per-day habit that he blames on a Beverly Hills doctor. Osbourne told the Los Angeles Times that his doc overprescribed a host of powerful antipsychotic and tranquilizing drugs. "I was wiped out on pills," he says. "I couldn't talk. I couldn't walk. I could barely stand up. I was lumbering about like the Hunchback of Notre Dame." On the bright side, it made for some great television.

Speaking of television- below is another short story from tvguide.com. I continually ask myself how Saturday Night Live stays on the air...because, as they mention below- it does, indeed, suck.
IN RELATED NEWS...: Several NBC affiliates refused to air this weekend's SNL — featuring presidential candidate Al Sharpton as host — for fear it would activate federal "equal time" provisions and force them to offer air time to the eight other Democrats running for president. Millions of Americans, meanwhile, refused to watch the show for fear it would continue to suck.
