GoogleWe've got Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal demanding
clean urine in exchange for welfare benefits (a bad idea that
also
doesn't work as advertised, but hey, at least the boozers are
safe!), North Carolina regulators
busting a blogger for
praising the paleo diet (an offense that can get you tossed in
the clink!), but this month the freakiest controllers come to us
from a Brazilian city where public schools have begun tracking
thousands of 4-to-14-year-olds with GPS-embedded uniforms. (At
least they're not tagging the kiddos' ears!)
