Maine police are searching for a cross-dressing motorist who has been jumping out of his car to display his sexy ladies’ underwear to female drivers. The suspect, who has a mustache, typically leaps out of his car dressed in panties, a garter belt, and black high-heeled boots, and strikes a pose in front of a female motorist’s car, forcing her to swerve around him. “The behavior is not necessarily criminal in terms of dress,” said Sheriff Mark Dion, but the man’s unsafe behavior “seems to suggest to us we have to talk to him.”

The Spice Girls had to cut short their global comeback tour because of a feud between Geri “Ginger Spice” Halliwell and Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham, says Britain’s Daily Star. The group scrapped the tour last week citing “personal and family commitments.” The truth, a source tells the newspaper, is that Halliwell, a single mother, could no longer stand her band mate’s constant chirping about her wonderful life as the wife of soccer star David Beckham. Halliwell “felt Victoria was really insensitive to her isolation,” says the source.

Catholic authorities in Croatia have opened a coffee shop that lets customers pay for drinks with prayers. The Jedro cafe in Zagreb charges four Our Fathers for a cappuccino and a whopping five Hail Marys for a Coca-Cola, the highest-priced beverage on the menu. “We have so many people coming here now that we are already up to 20 tables,” said a spokesman. “It is growing all the time.”
