‘Osbournes’ Expert Can’t Decipher ‘Ozbonics’



NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) – Ozzy Osbourne’s family will soon be the subject of a new book but don’t expect it to help you comprehend Ozzy’s trademark mutterings. Reed Tucker, author of the upcoming book, The Osbournes Unf–- ingauthorized (Bantam), says he originally wanted to include a glossary of Ozzy terms, or “Ozbonics,” but has decided against it. You see, Tucker has viewed every episode many times and discovered what many people already know: Ozzy doesn’t use any unique words, he just sort of mutters incomprehensibly. In addition, the proposed Ozbonic glossary had another problem: The Osbourne family curses up a storm and Tucker doesn’t want to define four- letter-words in a book targeted to teenagers. The Osbournes Unf–-ingauthorized hits stores in July.
