Man arrested for baggie of pot stuck to forehead
A Pennsylvania man has been arrested for allegedly having a plastic bag of marijuana stuck to his forehead. A police officer says he observed Cesar Lopez, 29, of Lebanon, peering desperately into his baseball hat while in line for a convenience-store restroom. The officer then approached and said, “Is this what you’re looking for?” and peeled a small baggie of what appeared to be cannabis from Lopez’s forehead. Police say potheads often use the sweatbands of baseball caps for hiding their stashes.

Paris Hilton agreed to make a cameo appearance as herself in an upcoming Will Ferrell film, says the New York Post, but insisted on having live lobsters in her dressing room. An insider says the film’s producers were “shocked” to receive a three-page list of demands from Hilton’s reps, including Grey Goose vodka and “live lobsters” to be prepared fresh if she becomes hungry. “It seemed excessive,” said the insider, “for just one day’s work playing herself.”
German brothel offers discount for cycling customers
An eco-conscious brothel in Germany is offering discounts to customers who arrive by bicycle. Thomas Goetz, owner of Berlin’s Maison d’Envie (House of Desire), admits the five- euro discount is aimed at exploiting his countrymen’s eagerness to be “green” in all their activities, as well as their frugality in a time of recession. Prostitution is legal in Germany, and there are 10,000 prostitutes in Berlin alone. Goetz says his new discount has a practical application, as well. “It’s very difficult to find parking around here,” he said.
