Speaking of Ozzy and sharen (ozzie's wife), I heard a funny story about them. During Ozzie's heavy drinking days, they were in New York. When Sharen had to leave the hotel during the day, she took all his clothes away and left him in the hotel room naked. She also intructed the staff to serve him NO booze whatsoever. When she came back at night, Ozzy was paralytic drunk. Same thing happened 3 days in a row. Ozzy is left naked, and he somehow gets legless in her absence. Finally, she says 'OK, ozzy. I give in. No recriminations. Just tell me how you managed it' 'Simple' he says. 'When you leave, I put on your dress and go to the transvestites bar on the corner!' LOL. Now that's genius..... mac PS Story courtesy of Rick Wakeman on 'Have I Got News For You'
