But as far as coming back, sure.” Osbourne, whose lyrics and lifestyle celebrate social decay, indicated in an interview after the concert a preoccupation with defiling public shrines. “My main goal in life is to use the White House steps as a pub lic restroom,” he said. “If I had a kid, I wouldn’t let him come to my show.” Officers said Osbourne was polite and docile during the drive to city jail in a police van. His bail was paid by promoter Jack Orbin of Stoned City Attractions, who also would be presented a bill for damages to the convention center, officials said. City officials said 24 people, mostly juveniles, were arrested after five two-story windows and six smaller windows and doors were smashed. /ideo hero now efender of title decide wild firm has United Press International IstoalevdiHAWNEE, Okla. — Tony design <k)well is a true hero, at least to alterations jtids who hang around the di an adeUta Fe Express electronic rogram.

After 12 hours at the machine, he slipped a leather glove on his left hand, which guided the controls, because of a blister. Crowell apparently snatched the record briefly held by Mark Jennings, 12f of Fort Smith, Ark,, who finished Monday morning with more than 20 mil lion points after playing 19 hours. The previous, known re cord was more than 19 million points scored by a Chicago teenager who played for about 16 hours.
