Crosby, 62, a two-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, was arrested at
1 a.m. at the DoubleTree Suites Hotel with an ounce of marijuana, a .45-caliber handgun
and a knife in his possession, police said.


Looks like Crosby was just a bit too discombobulated to assemble the whole survival
kit that Slim Pickens listed while piloting that B-52 in "Doctor Strangelove".

But I'll give Crosby an honorable mention for giving it a good try during these metrosexual times.

"Survival Kit contents check. In them you will find: one 45 caliber automatic, two boxes of ammunition, four days concentrated emergency rations, one drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills, one miniature combination Rooshan phrase book and Bible, one hundred dollars in rubles, one hundred dollars in gold, nine packs of chewing gum, one issue of prophylactics, three lipsticks, three pair of nylon stockings -- shoot, a fellah could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff...."

A little bit of trivia for you. Right before the Dr. Strangelove came out, JFK was assassinated. The original script had Slim Pickens saying, "shoot, a fellah could have a pretty good weekend in Dallas with all that stuff." It was then overdubbed, but you can read his lips saying "Dallas".
