Comedian and actor Paul Reubens, aka Pee-wee Herman, was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of indecent exposure outside of an adult movie theater in Sarosota, Florida. Reubens apparently was masturbating while watching a porno flick in the theater. Following the arrest, toy stores across the nation removed all Pee-wee toys, and his kiddie-show career was destroyed.

Pardon me for pulling the above quote from so far back in this thread (July 26, 2003) but this story has always perplexed me and as I was reading through all the interesting facts...this one jumped out at me......again!

Now....I gotta ask......Did the authorities NOT see anyone else but Paul Reubens "waxing his carrot" in this adult theater? How can it be called "indecent exposure" if he was INSIDE the (presumedly darkened.....as there was a movie playing)theater...and not outside lurking around the ticket booth? Was he standing up and waving his schlong in the face of the other patrons? Did someone in the theater witness this act and get offended that he couldn't watch his porn flick while another patron was doing an act that might have been playing on the screen simultaneously? Is this act a revelation to the authorities? Was it masturbation that ruined his kiddie-show career, or was it the media blitz that followed the arrest for an act that should never have been reported to children in the first place?

That did, and still does, piss me off to the max......in purple passion style! I love Paul Reubens and they did him dirty for this selective arrest!

OK.....I'm done! *jumps off the soap box*
