Corey Delaney, the Australian party boy whose rock-hard abs, nipple ring, and steadfast refusal to kowtow to authority made him a hero to kids everywhere, is not the rebellious young Spicoli we thought he was: According to reports this weekend, Corey has put his tail between his bronzed legs and decided to reunite with his parents.

"He's devastated," says mother Jo Delaney. "He's taken this and run with it but he has come back down to earth with a big thud. At this stage, for everybody's sake, he's taking a bit of a break.'' But what about the sake of the children?
