Nicolas Cage awoken by naked man with Fudgesicle
By John McCrank | Reuters – 18 hrs ago


TORONTO (Reuters) - For actor Nicolas Cage, making the new thriller movie
"Trespass" hit close to home.

Cage, at the Toronto film festival along with director Joel Schumacher promoting
the film about a home invasion, said that he has actually lived through the
nightmare in real life.

"It was two in the morning. I was living in Orange County at the time and was
asleep with my wife. My two-year old at the time was in another room. I opened
my eyes and there was a naked man wearing my leather jacket eating a Fudgesicle
in front of my bed," he told reporters on Wednesday.

"I know it sounds funny ... but it was horrifying."

A Fudgesicle is a frozen, ice cream-like snack.

Cage said the ordeal ended after he talked the man out of the house and police
arrived. He did not press charges, as the man had mental problems, but Cage,
who now lives in Nassau, Bahamas, said he could not stay in the house after that.

15. Fudgecicle is a brand name and this is an internatinonal story

I'm not sure if the brand name is internationally known. But I doubt it.

3. Now THERE'S something that doesn't happen every day.....

I think the Queen of England handled her intruder a bit calmer.

5. I'll be takin' this fudgesicle and whatever cash ya got.

7. "Wanna lick?"

I know it isn't in the article, but what else could the intruder say at that point.

Knowing how fast Fudgesicles melt, I assume that after he disrobed and donned Cage's jacket, the man went through the freezer looking for treats. This guy has so many loose screws he rattles.

[frazzled]

8. Pretty funny, but I know the feeling

Sometime back in the 90s I was home alone one day, watching eggs boil in the kitchen (not as funny as a Fudgsicle, but pretty funny just the same). Nice fall day, must not have locked the screen door. All of a sudden I heard it slam. I ventured out and there was this crazy looking guy standing in the middle of my living room. I just started flailing my wooden spoon around and yelling "Get Out of My House!" at the top of my lungs. He ran like a rabbit and when I went to the door, I saw that he'd left a big Yellow Pages phone book in my entryway. (Remember phone books!) I looked out the window and saw him carrying a stack of them down the street. And I realized he seemed to be, shall we say, developmentally disabled. I felt horrible for yelling at him and scaring him. And I almost ran after him to apologize. Then I thought, no. Let's end this episode right here.

But a naked man with a Fudgsicle in the middle of the night. That's pretty whack.

9. Most entertaining thing involving Cage - ever.

10. Now we know why he really moved

out of state. It was not the back taxes. It was a damn fudgesicle!

[hlthe2b]

11. do most younger folks not know what a fudgecicle is? Really?

Note to self... stock up in case of chocolate-craving stalkers...:crazy:

[Bluenorthwest]

14. Do they have Fudgecicles in Canada?

Story is from Toronto....

[Fire Walk With Me]

16. Bastard went after mah Fudgecicles. He needed killin, yer honor.

Case dismissed.

[Goblinmonger]

17. At least

if he was showing up naked, he brought tasty treats.

[dddem]

19. I thought that was the rule.

At least that's what I do.
