There was a lot of big stuff happening on last night’s season finale of Saturday Night Live : there was “Lazy Sunday 2″ (which could end up being one of the last digital shorts), host Mick Jagger played bits of seven songs (including six Stones classics), Stefon had a hilarious return, and most emotionally, the cast bid farewell to the departing Kristen Wiig in the final sketch.

This week, we learned way too much about Tony , the Q69 bus driver who has been the subject of a very public flyer campaign against him for more than a year. Apparently, Tony is a “flirt with all the women every day” who had a “One Night Stand” with a passenger—the scorned woman claims he got her with this pickup line: “I won’t forget your famous line, ‘Married men are lonely, too.’” Tony’s coworkers have some advice for him: “She seems like a woman scorned,” one told the Post , “but if Tony is still working that line, he’s crazier than she is.” [ more › ]

Giants quarterback Eli Manning took to Saturday Night Live to mock his New York credentials, as well as rival quarterback Tim Tebow and big brother Peyton Manning. Manning acquitted himself admirably, and the sketches, on the whole, were pretty good, though writers did put Manning in drag (that’s a go-to for athletes who host ). [ more › ]

A probationary police sergeant was so upset over a poor evaluation he received from a lieutenant that he went and sued the NYPD. According to Michael J. Fox (yes, that is his name) an unnecessarily negative review by Platoon Commander Lieutenant Roger Lurch led him to lose a year-long paid leave of absence and a scholarship to Hunter College—and so sued to get both back [ PDF ]. Maybe the fact that Fox is gay and Lurch is not could help his case? [ more › ]

Gay Cop Sues NYPD For Taking His Scholarship Away
Earlier this month a Brooklyn bodega worker was arrested and pleaded guilty to selling booze to a minor. Funny thing is, he didn’t do it. And now he wants the city to vacate his plea and apologize. See, on April 12th an 18-year-old auxiliary cop tried to buy a Smirnoff Ice from worker Ismael Duran at the Giselle Mini Mart in Brownsville. But Duran turned the teen down. Only then a 51-year-old customer bought the booze for the kid—and cops arrested both men. [ more › ]

New York DJ Jonathan Toubin , who in December of 2011 was injured during a freak accident, will be making his return to the decks in May. Toubin was sleeping in his hotel room in Portland last year when a taxi came crashing through the wall, fracturing his skull base, pelvis, collarbones, ribs, and sternum, as well as leaving him with many internal injuries including a punctured liver and crushed lungs. He talked about his injuries, and waking up a month later in the hospital, earlier this year , and will now finally make his triumphant return. An announcement on his NY Night Train site reads, “The good news is that, after months of healing in Portland, Jonathan Toubin is finally ready to come back home and get back to work.” [ more › ]

Happy Friday the 13th, everyone! Here’s a little sprightly bit of news to celebrate the day: a Jersey couple has sued their landlord for the rent they’ve paid, as well as the security deposit, on a house they’ve found to be haunted. According to the Asbury Park Press, Josue Chinchilla and Michele Callan witnessed “paranormal activity” such as “lights that switch on and off by themselves, clothes and towels mysteriously ejected from closets, unintelligible whispering, footsteps in the kitchen and a mysterious force tugging at bedsheets during the night.” Photo via Asbury Park Press Naturally, those experts interviewed have varying claims: a paranormal investigator pinpointed the house as “the site of an active or intelligent haunting”, a pastor said it’s the victim of “demonic possession”, and the orthodontist who owns it said there’s absolutely nothing wrong with the property. Meanwhile, while they only inhabited the house for seven days before moving out, Chinchilla was so freaked out about whatever went on inside that he was hospitalized with panic attacks. A judge will hear the case at the end of the month. · Family flees house they say is haunted [Asbury Park Press via USA Today ]
