Well, I've heard my grandmother use the word "high" to refer to being "drunk," but I've never heard "stoned" refer to it, but then if high can mean drunk then I guess so can stoned. Even if he did smoke pot, it doesn't mean he's still addicted to it. Same with alcohol. It's not like he's using and abusing it. As long as it's under control, it's not an addiction. For example, none of us can control our love for Stevie, while some fans (as we have heard in the "sitting down" concert posts) obviously can because if they couldn't, they would be standing up at concerts like the rest of us. I think Ozzy still occasionally tokes the bong and sips the wine, I just think it's not as out of control as it was.

As far as the show goes, I absolutely love it. It's just another reality television show I watch, and I've noticed that those are the only types of television shows I watch anymore, besides The Simpsons. My FAVORITE thing that happened on the Osbournes was when Ozzy had to chase the cat through the backyard, and he's hobbling along at like, 1 mile per hour with his cane trying to catch a cat, screaming for Sharon. In addition, the Osbournes has become MTV's highest rated television show, last week's ratings were 6.3 million. It's pop culture's next big thing.
