Daddy, Why is Mickey Mouse in Handcuffs?
The happiest place on earth just might be the back of police paddy wagon.
Mickey Mouse, Tinker Bell, Peter Pan, Minnie Mouse and Snow White were among 29 people arrested Thursday evening in Anaheim, Calif. when close to 1,000 ticked-off Disneyland hotel workers swam in the streets in protest.
According to the OC Register, the workers' fuzzy suits are in a wad because they say they've been working for the Mouse without contracts since January.
A rep for Disney says "We have a history of strong relationships with our Unions – and clearly we are disappointed that Unite HERE Local 681 has spent more time protesting -- to date 14 rallies – than the 11 occasions they have spent at the negotiating table. These publicity stunts are not productive to the discussions and are incredibly disruptive to the Resort Area. We care about our Cast Members --- and remain hopeful that we can reach an agreement that is both fair and equitable, providing Union Leadership is reasonable and realistic in its approach."

Mickey Doesn't Wear Turbans!
Mouse ears don't grow on turbans, according to a Sikh trumpeter who says he got negged for a job by Disney because of his religious headgear -- and facial hair.
In his suit, Sukhbir Channa says when he applied for a job at Disney World in 2006, he was told his turban, beard, and long hair didn't conform to the "Disney look." Here's the goofy part: just a few months before, in 2005, he says he marched as a toy soldier in a Disney parade with no problems-- but then his turban was hidden by a big toy soldier hat.
Disney tells TMZ that Channa's claim is "without merit."

Cookie Jar Monster
Did you ever want a Snow White cookie jar? Or a Mickey Mouse, or a Ronald McDonald one? Or Cookie Monster? Or Betty Boop? How about 400 of them?
One eBay seller is dumping his 20-year collection of vintage cookie jars, starting at the bargain price of $6,400! That's a lot of cookies! Amazingly, the collection is probably worth a lot more.
Get your cookie on. No shipping on this one, you'll have to go to Monroe, GA to pick 'em up. Got milk?
