Disneyland Park Littered with Dead People
According to Al Lutz at MiceAge.com, Disneyland has been facing a problem with people smuggling the cremated remains of their loved ones into Disneyland and spreading them inside their favorite attraction. The problem has been especially acute at The Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. According to Al, when a ride operator notices someone spreading ashes the ride is immediately closed until the Disney custodial staff comes in and cleans up with a big vacuum. Apparently, Disney does not have cameras in many rides, including It’s A Small World, so sometimes ashes aren’t noticed until after the park closes (or I bet sometimes not at all depending on where the ashes are scattered). You must really not like your deceased relative if you scatter them throughout It’s A Small World. Can you imagine trying to rest in peace and have to listen to that annoying song for eternity?
Man Fleeing Police Killed by Alligator
According to FoxNews.com, an alleged criminal was killed by an alligator while fleeing police. The man dove into a retention pond to evade police and was bitten several times in the face by the alligator. According to the article “the man’s body was found at the bottom of the pond Friday” and “the alligator was later trapped.” Trapped? This criminal-nabbing alligator should be getting a medal!
Man in India Marries Dog
Fox News reports the following:
Selva Kumar had been hounded for 15 years by the memory of a horrible act he’d committed as a teenager. As an 18-year-old he had stoned and clubbed to death two dogs he found engaged in mating. He then hung their carcasses from a tree. That’s when his personal suffering began.
“After that my legs and hands got paralyzed and I lost hearing in one ear,” Kumar told the Hindustan Times newspaper.
Kumar, now 33 and living in the southern Indian district of Sivaganga, could no longer take the physical pain of the “dog curse,” so he sought the advice of an astrologer. Her cure for his maladies? “Marry a dog.”
No word on where they’re registered or where they plan on spending their honeymoon.
“Mr. Toilet” Builds Commode-Shaped House
MSNBC.com is reporting this story. I really don’t have much to add. The picture tells it all. I hope that Mr. Toilet went all out. It’d be cool if the entry door was on top of the house and to get in you have to push down a flusher and then slowly slide down around and around until you eventually reach the interior of the house.
Kanye West’s Mom Dies After Plastic Surgery
Sad news, once again from FoxNews.com. Kanye West’s mother, Donda, has passed away. An autopsy hasn’t been performed yet, but she apparently underwent cosmetic surgery recently and complications from that haven’t been ruled out as a cause of death yet. I guess she felt that she needed the cosmetic surgery. May she rest in peace.

Yeah! I love when I’m first to comment. Is this going to be a regular feature? Weird-News Wednesday? I like it. I would like to scatter my ashes in that toilet house. I’m going to leave instructions for this in my will.

Hey Abarclay, it might be….I don’t know. I might do this instead of the Breaking News stories I usually do. Good idea for your ashes. I was thinking the guy that got killed by the alligator should take his ashes to Disneyland and sprinkle them throughout the Jungle Cruise ride.

Ummm…ashes in DL??? That’s just freaking weird! I understand there are crazy Disney fanatics out there…but I don’t want to ride a ride knowing that there could be dead remains below me…very creepy!
Disney should come up with it’s own cemetary…off grounds. I’m sure they would make a TON of money selling “ash” space or plots.
Then I wouldn’t have to be so creeped out!

Love the wierd news! Much better than what you get turning on the tv. Thanks

Daddy Dan – you’ve been randomly tagged. Please see my blog for directions to play along. (And I love that I’ve found your blog. Can’t wait to have more time to explore it.) Peace.

omg that toilet shaped house? wtf? and marrying a dog? seriously. people got issues
#7 by Tara on November 14th, 2007
I think the alligator needs to be made a member of the force. Instead of using a K-9 dog, they could send the alligator after criminals.
I bet that astrolger is laughing her butt off because he actually married a dog. Crazy people.

Wow. Lots of odd news.
Note to self: tell hubby not to spread my ashes at Disneyworld or Disneyland if he has me cremated.
Oh, and I ditto Tara about the alligator.
Possible Future Headline: Alligator named Honorary Member of Local Police Force.

married a dog? i mean sure some bad things happened to him after he did what he did, but i would consider it bad karma or a coincidence. not need to marry outside your species!

Umm…I think Selva is a sick man. Anyone who would abuse animals should be clubbed themselves.
#11 by momisodes on November 14th, 2007
D.D. I love the weird news!
That is so sad they trapped the alligator. If only all criminals could faced the same sentence.
Dude and the dog? He is a sick, sick man. His new dog spouse needs to sleep with one ear flap and eye open.
I wonder what kind of cosmetic surgery Kanye’s mom underwent.

Well done Daddy Dan!

Kanye West’s mother probably died from the allergic reactions of the chemicals involved in plastic surgery or possibly the implants. It would be a real shock if it was something totally avoidable such as an unclean knife or the wrong cut. By the way, I bet the Indian arm of PETA would really love to get at that man and rescue Selvi from his (possibly) dirty paws.

Badness: What’s that name all about? =) Thanks for the compliment!
LilyMane: Sorry, but my meme days are numbered! See my latest post about my new feature ‘Ask Me Anything’ if you have any questions for me. I’m happy you found my blog.
Becky: Weird stories, huh? At least the dog wife probably won’t nag him! just kidding!
Tara: That would definitely get the criminals to give themselves up. The bad news is the alligator was to be destroyed.
Lainey-Paney: Make sure you tell him, or you’ll just end up in a vacuum bag at the dump.
Michelle: Those Indians have their ways. I hope it works out for him. I feel sorry for the dog. He was probably in love with another dog before this arranged marriage.
VG: I agree!
Momisodes: Thanks! Apparently she was getting a breast reduction.
Nick: Thanks, buddy!
Virgilius: I’m sure PETA isn’t happy with the marriage. Don’t they love animals more than people?

Happy Working Mom: Sorry to freak you out….the article says that Disney cleans up the ashes as soon as they discover them, even if it takes closing the ride for several hours. I didn’t originally reply to your comment because it ended up in the spam file for some reason.
#16 by abarclay12 on November 14th, 2007
Does the article say where the Indian man and his dog-bride are registered? I’d like to send them a gift.

Abarclay: Petsmart and Wal-mart
