 From DailyDoseOfWeirdNews.com, I'm Darren Marlar and this is your Daily Dose of Weird News! A Dutch town has introduced an unusual way of trying to keep smartphone addicted residents safe – installing traffic lights in the pavement. Bodegraven in the Netherlands has put strip lights in the floor at a pedestrian crossing, meaning people who stare at their phones all day will see them, preventing them from wandering dangerously into traffic. That's nice of them, but wouldn't it make more sense to just go ahead and allow these people to get run over by cars to weed out the defective genes from future generations? Target says they're going to hire 100,000 temporary workers for the upcoming holiday season. Great news for those of you who are hoping to work on Thanksgiving! In Laputa, California, some nut job was jumping from rooftop to rooftop of these single-story homes on Beckner Street for hours, refusing commands from deputies and crisis negotiators to stop and come down. But after being up on the roof of 83-year-old Wilfred Burgess' house for about an hour, Burgess got fed up, so he borrowed a neighbor's ladder, climbed up on his roof and pushed the suspect off into the waiting arms of police. Granddaughter Ashley Wren recorded the whole thing on video and said she was thankful her grandfather was protecting his family. After the big push, the suspect was taken into custody and was admitted to a hospital for a mental evaluation. As for Mr. Burgess, he said staying in shape is important to him in his 80s. He added, I tell everybody, just because you're old, that don't mean you've got to sit down. As long as you're able to move, move. You know, I'll bet in his neighborhood, when he says get off my lawn, the kids listen. The Los Angeles Lakers are going to retire Kobe Bryant's number. No one will ever pass a basketball wearing that number again. Wait a minute, let me rephrase that. That's not just us. Now a veterinarian is claiming that one in three pets that he sees is overweight or obese. Well, we've heard that pets tend to look like their owners. In Liberty, Missouri, the neighbors of Richard Geisenhainer were not too happy about him flying a Confederate battle flag in front of his home and let him know it. Mr. Geisenhainer responded by placing a sign above his Confederate flag, a sign that read SLAVES FOR SALE. He says if people actually believe that a Confederate flag stands for slavery, well I might as well be just as stupid as they are. Geisenhainer, who has mixed-race grandchildren, said that he flies the Confederate battle flag to make a political statement, noting it's for people that are tired of the government telling them what to do and what to think. That is what a Southern rebel is. Obviously, the public outcry over the sign was fierce, and Geisenhainer took it down the next day because he believes his point had been made. Neighbors speaking to reporters said they hope that in the future Geisenhainer might choose a different way to vent his frustrations. Meanwhile, he's not expected to get many trick-or-treaters this year. The 21-year-old son of actor Jean-Claude Van Damme has been arrested and is accused of holding his roommate at Knife Point at their apartment in suburban Phoenix. That is really strange, I mean, you almost never hear of children of celebrities getting into legal trouble. In South Carolina, a woman was trying to avoid legal problems by paying a traffic ticket in person, but when she arrived at the courthouse, officers arrested her for driving a stolen vehicle.
