Disneyland Cans 'Jack Sparrow' Actors, Girls Flashing Possible Reason</b>

KTLA News

December 6, 2008

ANAHEIM -- Disneyland management has fired the four actors who played pirate Jack Sparrow because officials were worried about young female parkgoers flashing the swashbuckling actors late at night, according to one former cast member.

"They lost control when they saw Jack Sparrow," said former pirate Brandon Pinto, who left the role after a dispute with management a year ago. "This is a sexy, rock-star pirate."

The pirate actors said they were told they were no longer needed for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride at about the same time that additional fairies were added to the park's cast, presumably to promote Disney's new movie "Tinkerbell."

Disneyland recently opened "Pixie Hollow" to capitalize on the new movie.

Disney denies that they pirates were replaced by Tinker Bell fairies.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Police in Devon, England, have come up with a plan to spend 30,000 British pounds on flip-flops - to help drunk girls walk home. The Daily Mirror reports that the plan is for the cops to hand out the plastic sandals when they come across a lady who is a little too tipsy to walk home in high heels. The cops hope it will stop the ladies spraining their ankles. Consumer campaigners appear less than impressed. “This is an idiotic waste of money," said one. “People don’t pay taxes for drunk women to get free flip-flops, they want police to fight crime. Police aren’t there to be an emergency supply of flat shoes.” However, the cops point out that the flip-flops will carry booze warnings when the scheme starts in Torquay next month.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

</b>
Dec 8, 8:58 PM EST
MUNCIE, Ind. (AP) -- Police said a woman was arrested after asking a state trooper whether she could smoke - and then trying to light up a marijuana joint. Honesty Knight, 32, was a passenger in a vehicle that Trooper Eric Perkins pulled over for a traffic violation early Friday. While the trooper was talking to the driver, Knight obtained the trooper's permission to smoke.

Police say Perkins then asked to see the cigarette, which contained marijuana, not tobacco.

Knight faces a preliminary charge of possession of paraphernalia. She was released from jail on bond, but couldn't be located for comment because no home telephone number was listed in her name.

<b>NUDE MAID STEALS $40,000</b>
(Tampa, Florida) - A nude maid cleaned up good at a Florida man's home. Sheriff's Office says the maid stole more than $40,000 from a Cheval home despite not wearing any clothes. The 50-year-old man hired the maid from the Internet on Friday to clean his suburban Tampa home. Authorities say the woman arrived at the home in a one-piece, light colored dress. She took off the dress and cleaned the house for $100-per-hour. Sheriff's office spokeswoman Debbie Carter says the man told deputies he left the maid alone in the bedroom to clean. When the man's wife came home from vacation, she discovered $40,000 in jewelry missing from their bedroom. Police are investigating.

• <b>Doctors Pull Screws, Nails From Metal-Eating Man</b>
Doctors in a coastal town in northwestern Peru have rescued the innards of a 38-year-old man by removing 17 metal objects -- among them nails, a watch clasp and a knife -- that he ate. Luis Zarate was taken to the regional hospital of Trujillo earlier this week by his family after complaining of sharp stomach pains. Doctors took X-rays of his chest that showed his insides littered with screws. "There were 17 strange objects found at the level of his stomach and colon," said Dr. Julio Acevedo, one of the surgeons who operated on Zarate. The black-and-white scans showed Zarate's skeleton interlaced with things like bolts, barbed-wire and pens.

<b>MEN SENTENCED FOR SETTING FRIEND'S CROTCH ABLAZE</b>
(California) - Two practical jokers are behind bars for setting their passed-out drinking buddy's crotch ablaze while boozing in Grover Beach. Matthew Craig Pillers and Jack Brent Nicholas Keiffer pleaded no contest to a felony great bodily injury charge. Prosecutors say the 22-year-old Pillers, a parolee, was sentenced to two years in prison and the 19-year-old Keiffer got 45 days in San Luis Obispo County jail. Elliot Tuleja was passed out when the men poured cologne on the man's groin and set him on fire. Tuleja had second-degree burns on his testicles.

<b>MAN SAVED FROM PORTABLE TOILET</b>
(Pennsylvania) - When firefighters were called out to rescue a man stuck in a port-a-potty, they were expecting to find an overturned toilet with the victim of a practical joke inside. Instead, when they arrived at the former Harold's Furniture store in the 600 block of Cumberland Street of Lebanon, they found 31-year-old Shannon P. Hunter of Lebanon. He was drunk, naked and wedged up to his waist in the hole of the toilet, Deputy Fire Commissioner Chris Miller said.
