Arrested (A Twofer)
Arrested (Noun) The act of detaining in legal custody.Andy Dick was arrested early this morning outside of L.A. at a Buffalo Wild Wings Grill & Bar. Extremely intoxicated, he apparently approached a 17-year-old girl outside the restaurant and pulled down her top and bra. That's what Andy Dick does, after all. It's all about as surprising as finding out a former-child star has a drug problem, though I do admit the evil mug shot has some entertainment value.
But the arrest that is shocking, at least to me, was that Steven Page -- guitarist and singer for the band Barenaked Ladies -- was arrested for possession of cocaine in upstate New York (where the only thing to do, really, is cocaine). Police apparently found Page and a 25-year-old female companion sitting on a kitchen floor (blazed out of their head, no doubt) staring at a white capsule, which tests revealed was cocaine.
Really? The guy from The Barenaked Ladies? They're such a chill, amiable group (with a helluva knack for melody). You know, they have this great song on a kid's album called "I Met a Bear," about a talking bear who chases the songwriter up a tree. I'm starting to think that it was all in his drug-addled mind. There's no such thing as a talking bear!
Two words:
Next Joker.
I detest Barenaked Ladies, so I'm delighted by this story.
Police "found" them sitting on a kitchen floor, with a leeeetle white capsule that just happened to be on the floor with them, that, OMG, turned out to be coke after they tested it?!?
Jesus on a jumprope. In the words of Dan Savage, "How'd that happen?"
I'm from the Syracuse area and the BNL story is all over our media here. It's just cause it happened in Fayetteville where the more affluent live.
Wow, is it just me, or does his mugshot look like Sideshow Bob?
