Bam Margera’s Uncle Vincent “Don Vito” Marera has been sentenced to “10 years to life on probation after he was convicted on two counts of sexual assault on a child,” according to a story on Pennlive.com.
Vincent Margera, 51, of West Chester, Pa., was also ordered Thursday not to appear as the Don Vito character for 10 years. His defense attorney had argued that Margera had taken on Don Vito’s outrageous and profane character at the time of the incident. . . .Margera was also ordered to register as a sex offender, get substance abuse treatment and undergo a mental health evaluation.
At least he’s not going to die in jail.

The king of the Jackasses is apparently taking his business upscale as he teams up with a business partner to open a theater in West Chester, Pennsylvania that serves alcohol.
The theater, so far unnamed, will feature musical acts, standup comedians and films. Construction is under way for a projected opening in the spring. . . “This is the real deal,” said Margera, 28. “I just want to own a piece of West Chester.”
Unfortunately, the West Chester City Council is attempting to bar his liquor license. “It’s not going to be like Jackass: The Bar,” Bam said.

When Will Farrell launched the site funnyordie.com with his writing partner Adam McKay they launched it on the popularity of one viral video: The Landlord. A skit in which Adam’s two-year-old daughter Pearl played Will’s landlord come to collect late rent. It was inspired comedy and the site got massive amounts of traffic. Obviously the brand name celebrity and the quality content added up to success in the short term.
Now Farrell and McKay have taken the same idea to action sports and launched Shredordie.com with the help of celebrity action sportsman Tony Hawk and some scraps of video left over from his production company 900 Films. What the site ends up looking like is, well, left over footage from 900 Films. We’re sure it will get better over time, but really, Tony, is this what you want to pin your Internet hopes on?

We missed it, but yesterday was Mickey Muñoz’s 70th birthday party at Doheny State Beach. According to the OC Register the party was the work of the Doheny Longboard Association, the San Onofre Surf Club and the Hawaiian Surf Association.
Guests [weren’t] supposed to bring gifts for Muñoz. Instead, Muñoz said a donation to the Doheny fundraiser will suffice.
We hope the day went well for everyone of the 1,000 guests.

From the celebrity blog What Would Tyler Durden Do comes these wonderful photos of Jennifer Aniston on vacation with the Arquettes in Hawaii. Here what they had to say:
These pictures, showing Jennifer Aniston on vacation yesterday in Hawaii with Courtney Cox and David Arquette, are boring, but at least no one is electrocuting dogs. I don’t get what she’s even doing. It looks like it has disaster written all over it, like the odds of falling in are the previously uninvented 140 percent. I guess I’m sort of impressed. I couldn’t do this any more than I could run down some rolling barrels on stilts.
She does look pretty comfortable with that paddle in her hands. Dry even. And we know it’s not exactly easy.

Since Paris Hilton got out of jail it seems like she’s living the wild life by spending time in the water learning to surf. Surfermag.com’s Scott Bass questioned people about what they think of Paris becoming a surfer girl. As usual, the guys don’t mind and girls think she’s going to ruin the sport. Us, we don’t think it’s a problem at all. . . especially if she keeps having wardrobe misshaps.
