Prego - It's In There

A Massachusetts high school is facing a pregnancy boom with 17 girls entering summer vacation expecting babies in what some have called a pregnancy pact.

Officials at Gloucester High School in Gloucester, Mass., are investigating whether half of the teens made a pact to get pregnant during the school year, Time.com reported.

Officials said that beginning last fall a large group of girls started asking the school clinic for pregnancy tests, the site said.

"Some girls seemed more upset when they weren't pregnant than when they were," principal Joseph Sullivan told Time.com. "We found out one of the fathers is a 24-year-old homeless guy," Sullivan told Time.com.

225,454.54 Bananas

Two men caught with $372,000 in cash near the Costa Rica-Panama border told police that they just wanted to buy some bananas.

Police said the two appeared to be nervous after their car was stopped over the weekend. Officials searched the vehicle and found the cash in a briefcase.

Police commander Freddy Hernandez said in a statement Monday that the men told officials they were banana brokers.

But police are holding them on possible money laundering charges.
Bananas cost about $1.65 a pound in Costa Rica.

Is he better than Mr. Big and his sexy saxophone? Well, that's for Rossman to decide.

For teen boys who prefer to dress as girls at one rural high school in Thailand, taking a bathroom break no longer means choosing between "male" and "female" restrooms. There's now a "transvestite toilet."

The Kampang School in northeastern Thailand conducted a survey last term that showed more than 200 of the school's 2,600 students considered themselves transgender.

So, when classes resumed in May, the school unveiled a unisex restroom designated by a human figure split in half — part man in blue and part woman in red. Below it are the words "Transvestite Toilet."

"I'm so happy about this," Vichai Sangsakul, a teenager with a pixie hairdo pulled back with a pink barrette, told Thailand's PBS news channel on Tuesday. "It looks bad going to female restrooms. What would other people think?"

Transgenders are regularly seen on TV soap operas and throughout Bangkok, working at department store cosmetics counters, popular restaurants, in office jobs and in the capital's red-light districts. Thailand also has transgender beauty pageants.

Drug Busted

***A British woman's bulging wig did not fool customs agents in Norway who realized she wasn't just having a bad hair day.

The wig was concealing 2.2 pounds of cocaine glued to her head and customs agents detained her on suspicion of cocaine smuggling, authorities said Wednesday.

"The agent thought she had a great deal of hair and suspected that she was wearing a wig," the agency said. "The wig was examined and the agents found a bag of cocaine."

Norway's largest newspaper, Verdens Gang, said the cocaine was glued so firmly to the woman's real hair that police brought her to the local hospital to have it removed.

***Frank Keys, 38, of New Orleans got in trouble June 3 in St. John the Baptist Parish, north of New Orleans, when sheriff's deputies pulled over the car he was in for a traffic violation, according to court documents.

The deputies and Drug Enforcement Agency special agents got permission to search the car, and a drug sniffing dog alerted them to the car's passenger side.

The occupants were ordered out of the car, and patted down. During the pat-down, "officers felt a large hard object in the pants area on Keys."

Keys told officers he was wearing a diaper and when they asked if there was anything in the diaper, he "shook his head affirmatively."

Officers then removed a package containing about 257 grams of heroin from the diaper.

The Gas Men

The mysterious "Gas Men" are super heroes to some fed-up motorists. The unknown duo were dressed in sunglasses, baseball caps, khakis and matching green golf shirts when they gave Gayle Kilburn a $100 bill on Thursday as she filled up her car at a Citgo in Plainville.

They also handed her a card that read "Re-Fueling Our Community" and was signed "The Gas Men."

Kilburn says she was stunned by the gesture and at first thought it was a stunt with Monopoly money. She later realized it was real cash and used it to fill her tank.

She said the Gas Men also helped five or six other customers.

Disorderlies

A band of women disguised as nurses is preying on female and elderly shoppers in central Florida, Local 6 News reported.

The gang most recently targeted a 74-year-old woman leaving a store. The bandits were seen following her and then one attacked, snatching her purse and jumping into a silver getaway car.

"These women have been striking in Altamonte Springs and in Orlando," Jeffery Sabounji of the Sanford, Fla., police department told the TV station. "They target elderly people and other females. They dress up as nurses to get people to relax so they think they are not going to do anything."

Detectives said that though several women are part of the gang of thieves, they're seeking one specific female suspect described as heavyset with very short hair. She can be mistaken for a man, is about 21 years old and is believed to live in Sanford, according to investigators.

"Whoo-weee!!"

"Cowboy Curtis" just pops into my head today- out of the blue. So why not "Finger" him, right?
Here's the thing...
It's Laurence Fishburne.
(aka Larry Fish-fry)
God damn. Did anyone know that?

Country Ass Town

1) Try not to laugh at this. 2) Try not to watch it a dozen times. 3) I dare you.


Corey Haim - Untamed

Former '80s heartthrob Corey Haim says kissing Victoria Beckham was a unique experience.

"When she kisses, she does this cool thing which I can't say," he said during a recent interview for a British television show. He then elaborated, saying "she does this little grr gnaw thing" that felt like "a girl gnawing on your lip."

Haim says he dated the former Spice Girl, who is now married to soccer star David Beckham, in the mid-1990s, calling her a "soul mate."

The "Lost Boys" actor says he met Posh Spice in 1995 when the Spice Girls arrived at a recording studio. "A car pulled up, and five girls in these crazy outfits pile out and are like these punk rock chicks. And then Vic. We lock on — sniper eyes. So I had to hang out with her, it was my obligation as a man."

The actor, 36, found success as an actor and teen heartthrob in the '80s but has struggled with numerous drug problems, including stints in rehab and a drug-induced stroke in 2001.
