That's one angry Plushie















Melissa...at last we have an answer: This could be why the plushies at Disneyland are always supervised by park "cast members":

"A Walt Disney World employee dressed as the character "Tigger" was accused of hitting a child while posing for a photo, a spokeswoman for the theme park said Saturday. Park officials temporarily suspended Michael J. Fedelem while they investigate the accusations, Disney spokeswoman Zoraya Suarez said. "Naturally, physical altercations between cast members and guests are not tolerated," Suarez said. Jerry Monaco of New Hampshire videotaped his son, Jerry Jr., posing with the costumed character at Disney-MGM Studios on Friday and recorded the confrontation, according to a statement from the Orange County Sheriff's Office. The father said Fedelem intentionally hit his son "on or about the head," said sheriff's spokesman Carlos M. Padilla. "The tape only shows a fraction of what happened. Now it's up to us to find out what led up to that.'" [Miami Herald]
OK. Just give me a minute to stop smirking... I don't know about you, but I find this incredibly funny... Since I'm already on the bus to hell, why should I try to be offended by this. Don't deny it -- you find it funny, too. And the kid probably deserved it.

Here's a photo of the the kid...you make the call: Does that face say he deserved it?
