LOVERS AND OTHER STRANGERS

Affairs of the heart are explored in the romantic comedy Almost, Maine

BY JAMES MACKILLOP

T

he teasing comma in the title of the episodic comedy Almost, Maine (through Saturday, Feb. 2, at the Redhouse Arts Center) hints at just some of the show’s wordplay.

As one of the characters explains, the area is unincorporated in the far north of the state, known for potatoes, not lobsters.

If the locals had had their act together, they would have incorporated and been bestowed with a name, and they almost made it.

Playwright John Cariani was raised in Presque Isle, an actual town in the same part of the state. He went off to a fancy college and then made a name for himself on television and Broadway. He portrays the snow-covered boonies both from within and without.

The 13-year production history of Almost, Maine is a case study in the chasm between taste-makers in Gotham and those of us in the rest of the country. When the show opened off-Broadway in January 2006, major newspa-

pers groaned, and it ran for exactly one month. Shortly afterward it caught fire in regional theaters and has been blazing ever since.

In 2017-2018 it was the most frequently performed show in American high schools, beating out A Midsummer Night’s Dream. But none of the characters are kids, and the quicksilver shifts in tone from absurdity to pathos call for professional delivery. It’s been nine years since Syracuse Stage produced it in March 2010, and it’s high time for a revival.

01.30.19 - 02.05.19 | syracusenew times.com

The current Redhouse mounting in the smaller (140-seat) Bill & Penny Allyn Auditorium merges the talents of longtime company favorites with new faces.

Director Steve Hayes, well-remembered for flamboyant leads in Hairspray and La Cage aux Folles, signaled his tone in handling this material with his 2018 autobiographical show Raised by Warner Brothers, Born in Syracuse. At bottom, he’s a local. Thus while some of the characters may border on types, like beer-drinking ice fishermen or overdressed snowmobilers, Hayes never condescends.

The first sketch, “Her Heart,” demonstrates how this will work, with a touch of magical realism. Glory (Lilli Komurek) wanders without a map in hopes of getting a prime view of the Northern Lights.

This takes her to the front yard of the unsuspecting repairman East (fiercely bearded newcomer Basil Allen). Assuming that the locals should be willing bit-players in her fantasy, she gives no thought to trespassing. Instead, East intuits her needfulness and gives her a big kiss, throwing her back on her heels.

Then Glory reveals her baggage: a small sack containing her broken heart.

Before he died, her cheating husband broke the thing, leaving her with shards.

The artificial device in her chest leaves her unable to return anyone’s love.

All the vignettes turn on the characters’ need for love and their difficulty in expressing it. That East, the repairman, takes on Glory’s need may have been too sweet for Manhattan critics. But not all the sketches come with happy endings.

Komurek and Allen are paired again as Marci and Phil, an old married couple, in “Where It Went.” Marci has lost her shoe after skating, and Phil is unable to aid her as she helplessly rubs her freezing toes.

The loss may not be Phil’s fault, but his inability to find the words is colder than the snow.

Failure to speak mark two of the sketches with Redhouse veterans Laura Austin and John Bixler. In the prologue, Ginette’s declaration of love is received poorly by Pete, who does not feel they are really so close. He compares them to the rounded surface of a snowball. But he continues to hold the snowball to reconsider the haste of his response.

There is anything but haste in arguably the most poignant sketch, in which Hope, a big-city sophisticate, takes a 168-mile taxi ride from Bangor to visit the door of the long-ago suitor who had proposed marriage. She never answered, for which she now feels shame as well as regret, and would like to rewrite history. Austin’s Hope is driven by her own need and cannot comprehend the hurt her indifference might have visited upon a townie left behind that she no longer recognizes.

Sex might be related to love but it has the advantage of being a more reliable springboard to comedy. In the most raucous sketch, “They Fall,” Randy (John Bixler) and Chad (Derek Powell) lament the ill treatment they have suffered at the hands of certain ladies and admit that they really prefer each other’s company.

Fearful of a Brokeback Mountain, they literally cannot stand up to the temptation.

Powell is back, swathed in layers of parka, as Dave in “Seeing the Thing,” trying to make a move on plywood factory worker and arm-wrestling champion Rhonda (Alyssa Ashley Otoski-Keim), a fellow snowmobiler. When he presents her with a painting he’s done for her, she thinks it’s road kill. She admits to being reluctant to show her feminine side, perhaps because she’s overdressed. Thus begins a G-rated striptease which gets the two of them down to red long-johns.

Marie Yokoyama’s subtle lighting design reminds us that most action in Almost, Maine, whether heartwarming or heartbreaking, takes place at 9 p.m., just enough to see a snowball or the Northern Lights.

ORANGE CRUSHES MIAMI

The Syracuse University men’s basketball team was firing on all cylinders Jan. 24 with its decisive win over the Miami Hurricanes, 73-53, at the Carrier Dome. Three-pointers made the difference, with the Orange nailing 14 shots from the outside. (Turnabout was fair play just two days later, however, when Virginia Tech’s Justin Robinson made nine 3-pointers to help defeat SU in an away game, 78-56.) The Orange returns to the Dome on Tuesday, Feb. 5, for an 8 p.m. game against Florida State.

A DESSERT OASIS

There is always room for Brian Connor’s sweet treats at neighborhood favorite Riley’s restaurant

BY MARGARET MCCORMICK

R

iley’s, on Syracuse’s North Side, is noted for several things: its warm and cozy atmosphere, with low lighting, polished wood and vintage/antique decor; its owner, Terry Riley, who sits down at the upright piano just beyond the bar to play for guests on Saturdays; and its hand-printed menu that changes daily and spotlights creative entrees.

A recent evening featured lamb and rosemary ragout tossed with pasta and Schiller Pork, roasted pork loin rubbed with herbs and served over sautéed on-

10

ions. The name is a reference to the city’s Schiller Park a block away.

Last but definitely not least are “Brian’s Desserts.” If you’ve been to Riley’s,

01.30.19 - 02.05.19 | syracusenew times.com

you’ve seen the “Brian’s Desserts” blurb at the bottom of each day’s menu. Your server will describe them, but they’re also listed on a small chalkboard and visible under glass as you walk into the dining room. Tip: Go easy on the bread basket and save room for a sweet ending, with freshly whipped cream on the side.

“A lot of people look at the dessert board first and base their dining on what’s for dessert. That’s what people tell me,” says Brian Connor, the seldom-seen and soft-spoken baker of Riley’s desserts.

Owner Terry Riley confirms this.

“Some people order their dessert before dinner,” Riley says. “They don’t eat it before dinner. But they want to know it’s going to be there when they’re ready.”

“I think we’re known for our desserts,” Riley adds. “They’re one of the things that keep people coming back.”

Whether you think of it as a bar with a good restaurant or a restaurant with a

good bar, Riley’s is one of the oldest continuously operating taverns in Syracuse.

The Haberle Brewery, one of dozens of breweries that once operated in Syracuse, opened a saloon there in 1897. A barbershop was once where the dining room is now, Riley says. He purchased the place in 1979 and has operated it as Riley’s ever since. The restaurant marks its 40th anniversary on March 15.

Improvements have been made, but the place hasn’t changed drastically over the years. The original bar is still there and the kitchen off the dining room is small by today’s standards.

Connor joined the staff in 1989. His baking kitchen is upstairs from the bar and dining room and shares space with a series of rooms used for private parties. Originally, the second floor had two apartments.

Like the bar and restaurant, the kitchen space is warm and cozy, with granite

and stainless-steel prep areas, cupboards, mixers and both traditional and convection ovens within easy reach. A bookshelf holds some of Connor’s favorite volumes, like The Fannie Farmer Cookbook, The Silver Palate Cookbook by Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins and The Cake Bible by Rose Levy Beranbaum.

Connor says he also finds inspiration in the pages of Gourmet, Bon Appetit and Cook’s Illustrated magazines and in the world of food and recipes online. “The internet is one of the best resources there is today,” he says.

Connor, 64, grew up in Central New York and studied history and psychology in college. Even as a kid, he remembers, he loved to watch his mother bake and was fascinated by how recipes come together and work.

He had several jobs before getting into baking professionally. Through one of them, he met a local caterer and “fabulous pastry chef” who was instrumental in getting him into the business. She was baking for Riley’s in the late 1980s;

when she departed, Connor was hired to take her place. He and “Brian’s Desserts” have been there ever since.

Riley’s offers about five desserts each day, usually a pie, a cheesecake, a chocolate dessert (think chocolate layer cake, chocolate tart and chocolate truffle torte), a dessert made with nuts and a cream dessert. The cream dessert could be a cream pie or a mousse.

Connor describes the restaurant’s desserts as homey, comfortable and familiar, sometimes with a twist. “It’s kind of like diner desserts,” he says. “We’re not a fancy-schmancy place.”

Connor loves the endless possibilities for making things with flour, butter and sugar. The restaurant’s top-selling desserts are raspberry pie and anything made with chocolate. Desserts sell best on weekend nights, he says.

He stays fresh by looking for new things to make in addition to old favorites. His pie crust is a basic crust made with vegetable oil. “You really can’t screw it up,” he says. This time of year

his pie offerings might include Crimson Pie (with oranges, cranberries and blueberries), a triple-nut pie with walnuts, pecans and almonds or an English cinnamon pie.

Sometimes, customers will make suggestions, as will Terry Riley, but Connor pretty much has creative license to bake what he pleases. All told, he makes about 30 desserts a week (not including private parties), as well as the restaurant’s bread.

The house bread is a basic, rectangular white loaf, supplemented with Italian bread from DiLauro’s Bakery.

“Terry Riley is a great boss,” Connor says. “He encourages you to do whatever you want to do.”

At an age where some people might think about hanging up their apron, Connor says he has no plans to retire. “I love what I do,” he says. “I love working. I never want to stop.”

THINGS THAT MATTER

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand: Gearing up for a presidential run amid a crowded field of Democratic contenders.

Michael Davis photo

GILLIBRAND MAKES HER MOVE

The #MeToo cause could help the New York senator’s Oval Office quest

BY LUKE PARSNOW With one New Yorker already in the White House, another one hopes to replace him. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand announced that she is running for president in 2020, joining an already crowded field of Democratic candidates hoping to take on Donald Trump.

The move ends years of speculation and expectation of her Oval Office ambitions.

Indeed, President Trump had barely been inaugurated in 2017 when many experts believed Gillibrand was gearing up for a bid, ranking her high on shortlists of possible contenders. Just two months ago during a debate, Gillibrand had to fend off questions about the White House and pledged to “serve my six-year term” if she was re-elected to her Senate seat.

So could the junior senator born and raised in upstate New York be the Democratic nominee and then the next president of the United States? To begin with, outside of New York, she is not well known. And in a primary battle that may include big dogs like Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders who may suck up all the oxygen, Gillibrand must make her mark

now if she wants to be treated like a serious candidate.

She’s doing that in a way that differentiates herself from the other Democrats who have already joined the race.

It appears she’s positioning herself as the more strength-through-serenity candidate, someone who is firm but calm, passionate but logical. This offers a contrast to the more dynamic and aggressive styles of Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris.

Despite perhaps appearing more cool and collective, Gillibrand has been a contentious leader in the area Democratic voters most want one: Being the anti-Trump. Indeed, Gillibrand has voted against all but two of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees and was a leading critic of both his Supreme Court nominees.

In the last two years, Gillibrand has only voted with the Trump administration’s positions 11 percent of the time, according to FiveThirtyEight, which is the lowest of any Senate Democrat, including Sanders and Warren. In December 2017, Gillibrand made national headlines when she said on CNN that Trump should resign

over allegations of sexual assault that first surfaced during the 2016 campaign.

Gillibrand’s anti-Trump posture will definitely help her win support among the Democratic establishment. Yet she will undoubtedly face fierce criticism and skepticism from the progressive wing of the party for her numerous past political positions.

Before being appointed to fill the Senate seat vacated by Hillary Clinton, who left to become President Obama’s secretary of state, Gillibrand burst into the political scene by winning a seat in the House of Representatives in 2006. She beat an incumbent Republican in New York’s 20th Congressional District, which at the time made up parts of the Capital Region and Hudson Valley.

Representing a very conservative district, Gillibrand took stances that would be frankly unthinkable for a Democratic presidential nominee of today.

She was at the time a member of the Blue Dog Coalition of conservative Democrats. She was strictly against amnesty for undocumented immigrants and “sanctuary cities,” and opposed giving driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants, a prospect briefly floated in New York state a decade ago. She also supported a platform that would make English the official language of the United States and boasted an A rating from the NRA. In addition, Gillibrand has also made moves that liberals fear make her appear very close to the Wall Street donor class,

despite voting against the bank bailouts in 2008. Just weeks before she announced her run, Gillibrand reached out to wealthy executives of Wall Street firms to see if she could possibly get their support.

Such things make her an easy target of being the classic “flip-flopper.” But that curse could also be a blessing. If her current progressivism is enough for her to win the Democratic nomination, Gillibrand’s past conservatism could very well help her win a general election.

Her upstate roots could also be effective in peeling off some of the Trump coalition in working-class rural America that voted in droves against Hillary Clinton two years ago. Being a New York Democrat, she may be able to shake off criticism of being a coastal elite if she can convince people that, because she grew up in and represented rural areas, she understands the everyday forgotten men and women more so than a billionaire real estate mogul who lived in New York City his entire life.

Even after rushing to the left over the last 10 years, Gillibrand has still been successful at appealing to Republican areas of New York. In Warren County, in the southern Adirondacks, Republican gubernatorial candidate Marc Molinaro won 55 percent of the vote in the November election, while Gillibrand won 56 percent there in her Senate race.

Her campaign’s opening shots included touting that Gillibrand won more votes statewide than Andrew Cuomo in 2018 and Barack Obama in 2012. And she has kept a consistent positive favorability rating across the state while serving in the nation’s upper chamber.

When it comes down to why she may think she has a shot at the presidency, it may come down to the simple political equation that she’s the woman for the moment. The rise of the #MeToo movement, which most recently fueled female voters to elect a historic number of female candidates in the recent elections, is a revolution that fits all too well with her largest legislative legacy thus far: cracking down on sexual assault and harassment of women in the military.

She was the first Democratic senator to call for former Minnesota Sen. Al Franken’s resignation after forcible touching allegations. And she publicly stated that President Bill Clinton should have resigned during the Monica Lewinsky scandal 20 years ago. Gillibrand has been given the nickname “the #MeToo senator.”

Gillibrand has reasons to be confident, and just as many reasons not to be. But it seems that the timing of this campaign with the rise of the #MeToo movement will likely play in her favor.

Watercolor WOWS ICONIC IMAGES TAKE ON VIBRANT TEXTURES WITH RETRO SORRENTO’S PAINTER MARIA VALLESE

BY KIRA MADDOX

M 18

aria Vallese, the artist behind the brand Retro Sorrento, likes to paint a sense of place. Iconic buildings and iconography are her calling, and the most common focus of her watercolor works.

A print of the Westcott Theater shows the building popping with vibrant splashes of cool turquoise and plum, its curvy-fonted marquee glowing a bright, warm yellow. The contrasting, blotted watercolors gives the piece a sense of movement and vigor, not unlike the alternative, edgier music concerts frequently booked at the music venue.

Other prints show rounded, retro camper vans and converted station wagons, inked in fine lines over circles of the iconic soft watercolors. They come in stickers, magnets and 2019 calendars. Vallese is also working on a print of Syracuse’s Dinosaur Bar-B-Que — another beloved venue with a notable marquee, one of Vallese’s personal preferences when looking for subjects (brick facades and unique details are other pluses).

01.30.19 - 02.05.19 | syracusenew times.com

“If you’re drawing a building, those little subtleties and things you accentuate with color and distortion allow you to make the place feel how it makes you feel,” Vallese said.

Vallese didn’t always have this oversaturated, psychedelic style. It was born out of a soul-searching trip to New York City, where she took more pictures of buildings and doorways than she did of herself or her friends. After producing an artwork series recreating them as paintings, she continued to gravitate toward subjects that evoked nostalgia. And what says “home sweet home” better than a familiar skyline or favorite hangout?

The pieces are first sketched out in pencil and finalized in ink. On separate paper, Vallese spreads and blots a watercolor wash to map out what the final product will look like. The two are scanned and combined digitally, where she makes her fine-tuning: restricting the color bleeds, playing with layering, experimenting with saturation.

“With digital work, the technology is so far that it still looks like your

hand,” she said. “Ten years ago I would have said no to it, because it looked more like the computer’s work than the artist’s.”

Vallese, who works out of a studio in Clinton, began her art journey at a young age with her grandmother. Where other children made stick figures and lopsided smiley faces, Vallese’s grandmother had her practicing still life and realism.

“Instead of coloring, she’d teach me to draw a mug,” Vallese recalled. “She treated me as an adult and was teaching me how to draw like an adult.”

Art quickly bled into other avenues of her life. She remembered going on family camping trips and taking off her shoes to stand in the middle of the nearby creek, stretching so she could get the perfect angle for a reference picture for painting.

In school, art class was one of the few areas that required her to push her own boundaries. “It was the only thing I could do for hours on end. I was probably a

flake to a lot of my friends growing up because I’d be drawing and painting,” she said. That led to classes at the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute and an application to the Rochester Institute of Technology, where she graduated from in 2010.

When it was time to set out on her own, she immediately saw the hardships of portfolio work and pitching to art directors, especially with the economy still recovering from the 2008 recession. She quickly pivoted to independent work, merging her professional Maria Vallese Illustration persona with her Etsy shop, Retro Sorrento — a throwback to her childhood nickname mixed with her own lifestyle flair.

Craft fairs and gallery work soon became relaxed networking opportunities.

Favorable word of mouth was another plus, as well as landing some noteworthy venues, such as several pieces in places like the Greater Utica Chamber of Commerce.

“You get people who are already in the creative field or have their own businesses, and they’re looking to support other local businesses,” Vallese said. “I think seeing a person selling their artwork and making a go at creating a business gives you a bit more of an establishment when you’re networking.”

Vallese’s artwork now graces one of Utica’s biggest claims to fame: Saranac beer. Vallese does all of their illustrated packaging, from the Adirondack-themed images on their core line to the more exclusive trippy hops and beer-king playing cards that adorn some of the Inner Circle Series brews.

A recent summertime partnership saw her work with the budding Made in Utica, as she created a special mug and matching mural for Handshake City. The popup styled outdoor space was created by community members banding together to transform an abandoned lot into an urban park/market for artist work, craft fairs, music series and other ventures.

One of the gutted shipping containers that marks the boundaries of the area is covered in Vallese’s hand, with an etchy central logo surrounded by other stylized icons of the Rust Belt city, all on turquoise and goldenrod sun rays, reminiscent of downtown Utica’s iconic sun mural at Genesee and Lafayette streets.

With hubs in Utica and her college hometown of Rochester, Vallese said it made sense to begin branching out to Syracuse. She often traveled here for the music scene (thus her draw to the Westcott) and to buy art supplies.

When Wildflowers Armory opened in downtown Syracuse, it created the perfect mini-venue to begin dipping her toes into the new market. As she wraps up other business projects in Utica, she said she hopes to create more iconic pieces for the Salt City.

Works by Retro Sorrento can be purchased online at retrosorrento.com or her Etsy page. You can also follow Vallese on instagram at @retrosorrento.

CHRISTMAS CRITTERS

Jim Alexander, 41, and Betina Bradshaw, 54, of Torquay, Devon, England, planned a Christmas feast for family and friends. On the menu: deer, pheasant, rabbits, badgers. . . all roadkill. Alexander, a trained butcher, has collected nearly 50 fresh animal corpses over the past year. “I know people will think it’s unusual, but really it just makes sense,” Alexander told Metro News. Bradshaw says her family refers to him as a serial killer, but he has gradually won her over to the idea of eating roadkill. “The first few times he brought a deer home he told me it was for the dog. Obviously, you turn your nose up a bit at the start, but now it doesn’t bother me at all,” she said. Alexander said his odd collecting habits have drawn the attention of police, but “once they realize I’m doing nothing wrong, they are fine, and one even helped me lift an animal into the van,” he said.

HIDE AND SEEK

On Christmas Day, Deadspin.com shared a “verbatim” list from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission of emergency room visits paid by Americans who inserted items into various body parts, and shouldn’t have. An edited sampling: Into the ear: “Popcorn kernels in both ears, ‘feeds her ears because her ears are hungry’”; “Was cleaning ear with Q-Tip, accidentally walked into a wall, pushed Q-Tip into ear”; “Placed crayon in ear on a dare.” Into the nose: “Sneezed and a computer keyboard key came out right nostril, sneezed again and another one almost came out”; pool noodle; piece of steak; sex toy. Into the throat: mulch; “Swallowed a quarter while eating peanuts”; plastic toy banana. And finally, into the rectum: “Significant amount of string”; cellphone; Christmas ornament ball; “Jumped on bed, toothbrush was on bed and went up patient’s rectum.”

on the walls, crawling on the ceiling, crawling on the windows.” Kreuze captured as many as she could and was hoping to find a new home for them, as it seems “people really like” the bugs. The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture advised that people who find the egg sacs on their Christmas trees should clip the branch and take it outside. Otherwise, without their regular source of food, the newly hatched insects will start to eat each other.

A DOLL’S HOUSE PART 2

Police officers in Richardson Forest Preserve, near Cincinnati, thought they had come across a body in a plastic trash bag dumped in the woods on Oct. 4. Instead, they found “Mandi,” a lifesize female sex doll, according to Metro News. Residents from the area have erected a shrine in the doll’s memory, leaving flowers and candles along with messages, such as, “Mandi, you were taken too soon. We will remember you fondly. RIP.” The doll is thought to be an expensive, high-end model, which makes the mystery of its disposal even more perplexing.

BUGGING OUT

Veterinarian Molly Kreuze of Springfield, Virginia, is planning to purchase an artificial Christmas tree next year after her natural one came with something extra: more than 100 praying mantises. Kreuze told WJLA-TV the leggy insects emerged from an egg sac under the tree’s branches and were “crawling

Along with a nail salon, a massage parlor and a dry cleaner, a mall in Toronto, Canada, is now the site of North America’s first sex doll brothel. Aura Dolls offers “an exciting new way” for patrons to achieve their desires “without the many restrictions and limitations that a real partner may come with,” says the company’s website. Marketing director Claire Lee told City News on Aug. 27 that customers “come in, they have their own room, a TV monitor that plays adult entertainment and a doll will be ready and waiting for you.” Lee also assures potential customers that the dolls will be cleaned after each customer using a three-step process. The company says it has had requests from women for male dolls and is considering adding them.

PASSING PARADE

Known for his blond mullet and numerous social media rants, zoo owner Joe Exotic (real name: Joseph Maldonado-Passage) of Wynnewood, Oklahoma, has been in a Florida jail since his arrest Sept. 7 for allegedly attempting to hire two people in late 2017 to kill an unnamed woman. According to The Jen Sorensen

Orlando Sentinel, one of those “killers” was an undercover FBI agent, and Exotic was indicted on federal murder-forhire charges. It all started “many, many years” ago, said Carole Baskin of Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, who claims to be the “unnamed woman” Exotic was hoping to off. She said Exotic has threatened her repeatedly and posted online a video of himself shooting an effigy of Baskin in the head. His trial was set for Jan. 8 in Oklahoma City. Tangentially, Exotic was also a candidate in a three-way Libertarian primary run for governor in Oklahoma last summer. He finished third.

EWWWW!

At Kirby High School in Memphis, Tennessee, Shelby County Schools superintendent Dorsey Hopson had to temporarily send Kirby’s 800 students to other schools after closing Kirby Sept.

5 due to a rat infestation. The problem started in mid-August, when district personnel uncovered a rat’s nest during a renovation project. Eighty rats were trapped at the school and poison was set out. When students returned after Labor Day, poisoned rats began dying within the school’s walls and the stench became overwhelming. Calling the situation an “unavoidable act of nature,” the school underwent several months of renovations and was slated to reopen Jan. 7.

NATURE CALLS

Neither rain, nor sleet, nor need of a bathroom break could stop a postal carrier from delivering the mail — and so much more — to a Memphis, Tennessee, resident. FOX13 reported Sept. 28 that a homeowner’s surveillance camera captured the postman looking around as he walked up the home’s front porch and urinating as he approached the mailbox.

He then placed mail inside the box and continued on his rounds, leaving a trail of urine on the porch and steps. The homeowner told FOX13 he hadn’t touched his mailbox because he was worried what could be on it.

CHEEKY BEHAVIOR

An employee at the Manassas, Virginia, Giant supermarket had a memorable day at work on Sept. 15 when he spotted Michael Dwayne Johnson, 27, in the

produce aisle. As the employee watched, Metro News reported, Johnson pulled down his pants, picked up a piece of produce and rubbed it on his buttocks. Then he replaced the produce on the display and pulled his pants back up. Manassas Police charged Johnson with indecent exposure and destruction of property after the store was forced to destroy several pallets of fruit. Police did not release a motive.

RUDE AWAKENING

Former English soccer star Gary Mabbutt, 57, traveled to South Africa in July to visit his daughter, who works at Kruger National Park, but it wasn’t the exotic big game that left the most lasting impression on him. While he was sleeping, he later told the BBC, “a rat has come into the bedroom, climbed into the bed and has decided to chew on my foot,” which Mabbutt couldn’t feel because he suffers from Type 1 diabetes and has little feeling in his foot. The rat “made quite a big hole in my toe, going down to the bone, and ate underneath my foot.” Mabbutt was finally alerted to the rodent’s presence when it bit his thumb and he saw his bloody foot. He flew back to the United Kingdom, where he underwent surgery and spent a week in the hospital. “All the opponents that I’ve played against,” he said, “and I finally get taken out by a rat.”

BRIGHT IDEA

The animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in Maine is seeking state permission to construct a permanent memorial to the 4,500 or so lobsters that perished on Aug. 22 when a truck carrying them crashed in Brunswick. The monument, a 5-foot-tall granite tombstone, would “remind everyone that the best way to prevent such tragedies is to go vegan,” said Danielle Katz, director of PETA. The proposed wording for the stone is: “In memory of the lobsters who suffered and died at this spot August 2018, Try Vegan, PETA” and would include a graphic of a lobster. Of course, Maine residents are possibly the least sympathetic about their crustacean counterparts: The Portland Press Herald reports that in 2017, 110 million pounds of lobster were harvested in the state.

THE PRICE IS RIGHT

Lifelong New York Knicks fan Evan Perlmutter, 33, finally hit the wall with his team. Fed up that the Knicks had been promising a better future for a decade, he told Bleacher Report, Perlmutter posted a listing on eBay to sell his fandom. In the description, he promised to root for the team of the auction winner’s choosing and “burn no less than three articles of Knicks memorabilia.” Sure enough, he got a bite: James Riedel, 23, of Orange County, California, paid $3,500 for Perlmutter’s fandom on Aug. 24, converting Perlmutter into a Los Angeles Lakers fan.

Perlmutter plans to attend a few Lakers games with Riedel and record his destruction of his Knicks gear for Riedel’s YouTube channel.

WHY IT’S CALLED DOPE

William Parrish Jr., 32, and McKenzee Dobbs, 20, of Ocala, Florida, were just trying to better accommodate their customers when they turned the kitchen window of their mobile home into a drive-thru for heroin addicts. They also installed helpful directional signs and even had a “Closed, Please Call Again” sign alerting buyers when they’d next be open. Ocala police officers who raided the trailer on Aug. 23 were tipped off by a number of overdoses happening nearby: “We were able to determine that the product was laced with fentanyl,” police Capt. Steven Cuppy told WFTV. Parrish and Dobbs told Ocala police they thought a drive-thru would be less noticeable than people regularly going in and out of the home.

ARMS AND THE MAN

Ronald Vanarsdale, 36, of Toms River, New Jersey, was drag racing on his motorcycle just after midnight on Aug. 30 when he crashed, sending the bike more than 760 feet from the crash site and hurling Vanarsdale 300 feet through the air, severing his right arm just below the bicep. NJ.com reported police Sgt. Ed Mooney applied a tourniquet to Vanarsdale’s arm at the scene, and he later underwent surgery at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune. Toms River police, though, could not locate the severed limb and asked the public’s help in locating it.
