Perverted Doctor + Captain America Costume + Burrito = No Jail Time

This little nugget of odd news stories has crawled back into the spotlight today. Apparently a few years ago, a Floridian doctor was arrested for groping a woman while dressed as Captain America. And if that's not weird enough for ya, check this out: he reportedly had a burrito jammed down his pants. Well, it's looks like the good doctor will get a second chance to prove to society that he has overcome his perverted superhero/burrito fetish. So instead of jail time, the doctor will be ordered into a "diversion program for first time offenders." This will include community service, fines and random alcohol and drug testing.

LOST's Finale has been downloaded 900,000 times

CrunchGear Reports,

Many of the downloads came from overseas, and that makes sense: episodes of the show typically don’t air in local markets for some time. Why wait until the local TV network gets around to showing the episodes when you can hop on BitTorrent and watch it just a few hours after ABC in the U.S.? The show’s producers did anticipate this, and tried to have the finale air quickly after its U.S. debut. That would explain this little stat: a full 15 percent of downloads come from Australia, where the finale doesn’t air until tonight.
