WIRELESS FLASH BRIEFS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

WIRELESS FLASH BRIEFS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- Blink-182's boy band spoof video, "All The Small Things" has backfired on them -- at least in the opinion of 98 Degrees crooner Jeff Timmons. The singer tells "React" magazine that, "Instead of making us look like cheeseballs, [the video] made them look good." -- MEXICO CITY -- The Mexico City Police Department is starting to use a crime prevention tactic straight from "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus:" only female officers will be allowed to hand out traffic tickets. Officials admit the theory is that female cops are less likely to take bribes -- a problem that's plagued the Mexico City force in the past. -- DENVER -- All those football games on Thanksgiving Day may leave you a little flushed. According to the American Water Works Association, there will be an average of 16.4 million Americans using the bathroom during half-time shows on Thanksgiving Day. That amounts to more than 48.5 million gallons of water.
