When you need a babysitter, and your friends flake out, who's always been there for you?

That's right. And don't forget it.

So when you come back from a night out and you don't feel so well, who will be there to make sure you're taken care of?

They were always there for you.

Now it's your turn to be there for them.

Casey Anthony Mask Sells for nearly $1 Million on eBay

Thursday, July 28, 2011 at 9:44 PM

From The Inquisitr: In the item description of the latex mask, the seller said it was one of only nine “sculpted to precision for a parody video by enigmatic pop artist/sculptor Torro.”

The Vid
“Forget Freddy, Jason, Meyers, here’s your chance to scare the shit out of everyone and win every costume contest with this amazing Tot Mom latex rubber mask, possibly the most frightening mask on the planet. And I can almost guarantee it’s the ‘only’ Casey mask on the planet,” the eBay description read.

The mask itself shows a relatively expressionless Anthony – a look that she became famous for as she stood on trial for the the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee – staring straight ahead, lips and mouth closed and her hair tied back in her signature pony tail.

Metaphor for the Justice System

The winning 105th bid, which was placed on Wednesday at 6:33pm EST, was totaled at $999,900. The buyer’s identity was kept confidential by eBay for obvious reasons – he/she has more money than sense.

Constantino Monterrosas Gamez Accused of Setting Wife on Fire as They Sped 65 to 70 mph on Interstate

Always carry spare gasoline

Constantino Monterrosas Gamez, 39, and his 23-year-old wife were heading south on the I-15 in his 2002 Chevrolet S-10 pickup when they got into some kind of dispute. Just north of Temescal Canyon Road in Corona, Gamez is accused of dousing the Mrs. with gasoline and flicking a cigarette lighter to torch her.

As the pickup continued speeding at 65 to 70 mph, she opened the door and jumped. Gamez continued heading south for a short stretch before losing control of the truck and slamming into the back of a garbage truck.

Neither Gamez nor the garbage truck driver were hurt, but Gamez's wife obviously suffered injuries from being burned and slamming into the pavement.

Amazingly, she is expected to recover, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Gamez was arrested at the scene by CHP officers and booked into the Presley Detention Center in Riverside on suspicion of attempted murder, domestic violence, kidnapping, false imprisonment and making criminal threats. Bail was set at $1 million.

Update October 26, 2011: Constantino pled guilty as part of a plea agreement and received just over 15 years in prison. Governor Jerry Brown is expected to immediately commute his sentence and give him a scholarship to the California State University of his choice.

Man Fights With Estranged Wife Then Sets Himself on Fire

A 50-year-old Rancho Santa Margarita man attempted suicide by setting himself on fire.

The Orange County Sheriff's Department and Orange County Fire Authority responded to a call that came in around 11:15 p.m. Friday from a neighbor who heard the man screaming on the deck of his condominium on Blue Oak.

The victim, who had doused himself with gasoline, was rushed to Western Medical Center's burn unit, where he was treated for second- and third-degree burns all over his body.

According to the sheriff's department, the man was listed in critical condition with injuries that could cost him his life.

He earlier argued with his estranged wife at her residence before returning to his condo and setting himself ablaze in the bedroom.

No one else was injured. The man's condo is in the middle of a three-unit building, but the condos on either side of his were not damaged.

Man's penis cut off, put through garbage disposal

48 year old Cougar, recently separated, seeks friend, possibly more

A Southern California woman was in custody Tuesday after authorities said she drugged her estranged husband, tied him to a bed, cut off his penis and put it through a garbage disposal.

Garden Grove police Lt. Jeff Nightengale said that Catherine Kieu Becker drugged a meal and served it to the victim, whose name was not released, shortly before the attack Monday night.

Nightengale said the 51-year-old man felt sick, went to lie down and lost consciousness. The 48-year-old Becker then tied the victim's arms and legs to the bed with rope, removed his clothes and attacked him with a 10-inch kitchen knife as he awoke, Nightengale said.

"He was conscious when his penis was removed," Nightengale said.

I am Tippi Hedren

Who is Tippi Hedren? The actress from Alfred Hitchcock's movie The Birds, of course. Why mention her and fingernails in the same sentence?

Flew in her manicurist

Because, back in the 70s when Vietnamese Boat People were fleeing a fallen Saigon, Tippi visited one of the tent cities near Sacramento. She noticed the Vietnamese ladies were good with their hands and flew in her manicurist to give them some lessons on basic skin care. Then, she persuaded a local beauty school to give them free lessons.
