Robin Hood is alive and well. Okay, so he got a little pudgy, and looks very Asian, but his archery skill is completely intact. (I think he just busted the Mythbusters!)
34-year-old Robin Joshua Hood was arrested in Denver after leaving a store without paying for three baseball caps he took. Police then found “injection devices” that Hood says he uses for heroin.
Officials say Hood found a wallet in downtown Denver and assumed the identity of the owner.
As Hood told investigators after his arrest, he was wanted out of Denver for drug violations and didn’t want to be arrested on a Denver arrest warrant.
Hood used the name he had stolen, which was blacked out in court documents, when issued a summons in Denver for shoplifting.
Given the circumstances, what’s the possibility that Robin Hood isn’t his real name, either? Link -via YesButNoButYes
The 1973 Disney animated film Robin Hood has been translated into languages all over the world, which has to be a difficult job because so much of the story is told through songs. Andy Baio at Waxy has collected over a dozen translations of the opening song “Oo De Lally” for your listening pleasure. The singers are quite talented! My favorite is the Arabic version.
