File under Fun Crime News: Two homeless ne'er-do-wells who've been bumming around the Haight of late stole a U.S. Park Police golf cart from Fort Mason last week and went on an overnight crime spree. 29-year-old William Crosgrove and his 27-year-old, Pippi Longstocking-ish companion went tooling around the Panhandle and the Upper Haight breaking into cars and such, finally getting arrested around 8:30 a.m. after Crosgrove threatened a Dept. of Public Works employee with a metal pipe and a bicycle lock. more ›

Performance artist and controversial radio host Michael Savage is screeching mad at local SF television stations. It seems, according to Rich Lieberman, some of them are refusing to air a spot he shot for his XTRA Sports 860 AM local radio affiliate, all because of his use of the term "schmuck." For the goyim out there who don't know what a "schmuck" is, it's a pejorative Yiddish term for the penis, which has trickled down in meaning to fool. Watch the tepid in in question here.

The Jonas Brothers Are Still Around

The Jonas Brothers will conduct live webchat today at 3 p.m. on UStream. The Mountain View based live web video site allows users to submit questions via Facebook and Social Stream. We know what you're thinking: Aren't they over? Didn't tween girls replace "Jonas mania" with "Twilight mania"? Aren't they one greatest-hits album away from the bargain bin? To this say we say, "No!" In addition to chatting up their new show Living the Dream 2 and coyly avoiding questions about their love lives, they'll also take questions on the White House's deteriorating relationship with Israel, the Iraqi elections, healthcare reform, and the ongoing economic meltdown in Greece. Or not. Anyway, check it out. (Amy Crocker)
