A New York man was arrested, for damaging a home, with his diamond belt buckle, while breakdancing. No really.

Just Another Manic ‘Bay Day’

Tabloid synergy is never a good thing and as you can see, newly signed Mets outfielder Jason Bay managed to land himself on the back pages of both NYC’s lowbrow papers. There should be some sort of special red phone like the White House shares with the Kremlin to make sure this type of thing is averted at all costs.

Food Vendors Fight for Their Right To Potty

Unhappy with the city’s health department revoking a food vendor’s permit because he left his cart unattended to take a much needed piss break—he does have problems with his colon—fellow food workers rallied with the man in Lower Manhattan to protest the measure. Mohammed Shirajul Islam has been selling roasted nuts on the street for over a decade, but last week returned to his cart and found that his permit had been removed after inspectors say he was gone for 30 minutes creating an “imminent health hazard.” |NYP|

Illuminati Invades Hollywood Video

The Illuminati is alive and well and living in Hollywood. Watch as Bart Simpson, the Terminator, and even the Mario Bros. predict the 9/11 attacks and the all-seeing-eye finds it way into just about every other movie. This has to mean something people!!!

Ghostface x Disney?

Yup! Watch Ghostface discuss his cameo in Disney movie When In Rome that even had fellow Wu elder Raekwon surprised. But don’t get it twisted, we’re not talking about some sort of animation or Pixar production, way worse, it’s a “chick flick.” Adding to this comic tragedy, he says he didn’t watch it, was hardly paid, and didn’t even know how to DJ, which incidentally, is the role they cast him for. |Nah Right|

Two kids were shot by some asshole in Colorado at a school only three miles from Columbine. They’re both expected to survive.

Parting Shot: Inflated

London’s Fashion Week easily one-ups New York’s in terms of weirdness as demonstrated by this photo of a male guest taken after Pam Hogg’s runway show: cue the music for full effect.

To kick off the 20th anniversary of their debut album, 3 Feet High and Rising, De La Soul let Kid Robot create these vinyl abominations that remind me more of Digital Underground than they do the Strong Island trio.

Money In The Bank: The $1 Million Dollar Comic Book

A 10 cent ‘Superman‘ comic from 1938 fetched in $1 milli for one fella rubbing his majorly lucrative dorkdom all over the net this week, smug geek bastard. Featuring the premiere of the Man of Steel and one of two in good condition of the remaining 100, this little comic book clocked in the record sale that’s triple the previous top ranker.  ComicConnect.com co-owner and big-bucks Superman #1 barterer Zurzolo is serenading about comic book collecting being a sounder investment than keeping money in the bank. He might have a point there.

Designer Isabel Mastache’s ‘peen pants‘ are not a good look for any man: gay, straight, certifiably insane.
