Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't have time to find a legal place to park his expensive car. He's very busy still trying to find a way to get California to recover from the amount of debt it's in.

So far, no luck.

But anyway, since the state is broke and the cops who have jobs want to keep them, Arnold didn't get a ticket for his crime. Or maybe there just wasn't enough cops on duty to catch him. Or maybe, no one gives a shit anymore.

We're going to go with the latter.

What a sad state we live in.

The Governator of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, signed The Donda West bill into a law this week.

California Assembly member Wilmer Amina Carter said of the new law:

"This measure will better protect our citizens from unnecessary bodily trauma that could result from elective cosmetic surgery procedures, if they are not physically fit to undergo surgery. It will help prevent other California families from going through the trauma and grief that the West family had to endure."

Kanye West is said to be very pleased with the news and his family is trying to get the law passed in Illinois and Oklahoma, where Donda resided, as well as in New York.

We wish Kanye the best of luck!

We'd be more happy about this if we didn't see it as a means to appease the gay community because of the fall-out of Prop 8. But regardless, the recognition is rightly deserved.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed a bill commemorating the remarkable openly gay politician, Harvey Milk. The bill states that May 22, Harvey's birthday, will now be honored as a day of remembrance and significance. Last year, the governor had originally vetoed the bill, claiming that it should be handled on a local level.

But as we said, there is a lot of bad blood between the gay community and the Californian government and Arnold is looking to mend fences. A spokesperson in his office was quoted saying:

"He really saw this signing as a way to honor the gay community in California…Milk has become much more of a symbol of the gay community."

It is a well respected and overdue honor for Harvey. We're sure his family and friends feel the same.

Just don't think it will make us forget anything else, Arnold!

Mayjah downgrade!

Oscar-winner Adrien Brody has been cast as the lead in Predators, a remake of the 1987 film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

WTF?!

Appararently, Brody fought hard for the role as he hopes to rebrand himself as an action hero with an option of future installments.

We had no idea he was that desperate!

The film, which is about a heroic mercenary who battles alien hunters, will be produced by Robert Rodriguez and aims for a release date of July 9, 2010.

Will U see it?!

As we mentioned earlier, director Roman Polanski was finally arrested and detained in Switzerland this past weekend due to his 1978 conviction for having sex with a 13-year-old girl in California.

The French-born director pleaded guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse with then 13-year-old Samantha Geimer, but later fled from the U.S. and a warrant for his arrest was immediately issued.

And the decision to take to trial this "great" director has many people at odds - with some thinking the case should be dismissed and others wanting him to pay.

We say, he should pay! And, thankfully, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger agrees.

The governor admitted that he admires Polanski's work, he is an Oscar-winning director after all, but added that he wouldn't treat this "situation any differently than everyone else."

Schwarzenegger adds:

"It doesn't matter if you are a big-time movie actor or a big-time movie director or producer. I think that he is a very respected person, and I am a big admirer of his work.

But nevertheless, I think he should be treated like everyone else. One should look into all of the allegations, not only his allegations but the allegations about his case. Was there something done wrong? You know, was injustice done in the case?"

As for Polanski's attorneys, they claim they'll fight the extradition to California.

Desperate times call for desperate measures!

According to the L.A. Times, California has resorted to selling items on eBay and Craigslist to clean out their storage facilities.

And Arnold is there to help!

The Governator has signed several items in order to help sales. For example, a 2002 Ford Focus with 108,000 miles on it and Schwarzenegger's signature on the visor is listed for $2,125 on eBay.

Unclaimed items and various tchotchkes confiscated by law enforcement, including a 10-carat gold ring, earrings and a seven wood coat rack, can be found at the Great California Garage Sale.

Maybe the state is bankrupt because we're paying police to confiscate coat racks!

Will U buy to benefit California?!

3 Action Legends. 3 Cameos. 1 Epic Movie Event!

It's the moment action movie buffs have waited for. Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, and our esteemed Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will finally be in a movie together!!!

The flick, The Expendables written, directed by, and starring Sly Stallone, will feature the trio of action heroes in a special scene which Bruce confirmed.

Due out next April, the movie is about a group of "mercenaries overthrowing a South American dictator" and is sure to be a hit with anyone who loved the blockbusters of the 80s and 90s.

And Willis admits they haven't even filmed their cameo yet. He says, “Not yet, I haven’t united with them. I’m waiting for a call from Sly about when we’re going to try and make that happen.”

Adding, “I don’t know anything about [my character] yet, haven’t seen any pages yet. But I’m excited about it.

Are U up for the ultimate action heroes cameos?

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and wife Maria Shriver are currently in Massachusetts at the hospital bedside of Shriver's mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, sister to the late President John F. Kennedy.

The 88-year-old Eunice is reported to be in the ICU unit of a Barnstable hospital, where she is in "critical but stable condition."

So, so sad.

Says a spokesperson for the Shriver family:

"Her entire family is with her — her husband, all her children and her grandchildren. The family is grateful for the prayers of her many friends."

Our thoughts are with the Shrivers during this difficult time.

Stay strong!

Is there going to be a True Lies II?

Apparently Tom Arnold leaked the details on the sequel, which would reunited him with co-star Arnold Schwarzenegger and director James Cameron.

Tom added, "All I know is Jim Cameron's making it and Arnold and I are going to be in it, and it starts shooting in 14 months, the day after Arnold stops being governor of California. It's not going to be called 'True Lies II,' but it might as well be. I can live with that."

What do U think?

Will Schwarzenegger really return to acting via a remake/sequel?
