Bu' Boys
Forget all you’ve heard about The Bra Boys, The ‘Bu Boys are the new surf gang in town, and they “like to fuckin’ drink and party, wooooohoooo!!!”, so if I were you, I’d stay away from Pt. Dume.
A few Paparazzi got their asses beat when they were trying to film Surfer Dude Matthew McConaughey this weekend surfing (well… paddling with his chest on the board like a beginner) at Little Dume. TMZ is trying to spin it to sound like they were protecting McConaughey, but we all know that they were really protecting the privacy of the break, not the dreamy, muscle ridden star.
Personally, I love it when these guys get in fights. Although what they do is not technically “against the law”, it’s a total invasion of privacy, and shows a complete disrespect for some basic human needs. I think they deserve every beating they get.

And Speaking of Drugs
I normally don’t care much about this stuff, but I thought this was particularly funny:
Former Broadcom CEO, CFO Plead Not Guilty
Broadcom co-founder Henry Nicholas III pleaded not guilty Monday to federal drug and securities fraud charges.
Nicholas entered the pleas before a judge in Santa Ana, Calif. Former Broadcom chief financial officer William J. Ruehle also pleaded not guilty to securities fraud.
Last month, securities regulators filed a civil suit alleging that Nicholas, Ruehle, company co-founder Henry Samueli and general counsel David Dull falsified Broadcom’s reported income, leading to what is believed to be the largest-ever accounting restatement related to backdating stock options.
The SEC said Broadcom had to restate its financial results in January 2007 because of the scheme and reported more than $2 billion in compensation expenses it had not accounted for.
Nicholas is also accused of stockpiling cocaine, methamphetamine and ecstasy. He allegedly used ecstasy to spike the drinks of business associates. Prosecutors said the former CEO once smoked so much marijuana on a private plane that the pilot was forced to put on an oxygen mask.
The case is set for trial on July 29.

I don’t know why I think it’s so funny when people fall down, maybe because it’s funny.

Study: Marijuana potency increases in 2007
WASHINGTON (AP) – Marijuana potency increased last year to the highest level in more than 30 years, posing greater health risks to people who may view the drug as harmless, according to a report released Thursday by the White House.
The latest analysis from the University of Mississippi’s Potency Monitoring Project tracked the average amount of THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, in samples seized by law enforcement agencies from 1975 through 2007. It found that the average amount of THC reached 9.6 percent in 2007, compared with 8.75 percent the previous year.
The 9.6 percent level represents more than a doubling of marijuana potency since 1983, when it averaged just under 4 percent.
