Jerry's Nugget playing cards

In 1970, the North Las Vegas casino printed a special deck of cards, and sold them in their gift shop for fifty cents. Almost forty years later, Jerry's Nugget playing cards fetch upwards of $1500 per brick (dozen) on ebay.

What makes these 54 pieces of cardboard so popular? ...the color? ...the design? ...the feel?


Or the fact that they just got Grippoed!?

Opps...Britney Spears does it again

Paparazzi catch Britney Spears getting GRIPPOEDBritney Jean Spears used to be sexy. Then she married a loser and popped out a few trucker babies. To everyone's surprise, she divorced the loser and had a ton of flings with a variety of other losers - making her even less attractive to eligible bachelors.

Rumor has it she started doing illegal things which endangered her family, career, and personal life.

Luckily, she has family around her who love her. They got her into a rehab treatment program, and she's getting back on track.

This is her first big change to a better, happier life...

Oh yeah, her new album BLACKOUT went platinum in under 30 seconds.
