A federal district judge has struck down a new rule requiring New York fast food restaurants to post calorie content on menus. This victory had the restaurant industry jumping for joy. Their customers were also happy, but too heavy to jump.

The New York State Restaurant Association said the rule was unconstitutional, so they exercised their right to challenge it in court. In fact, in the fast food industry, this is the only exercise they know.

To hear the ruling, fast food connoisseurs crowded into the courtroom, which was standing-room-only. Actually, there were only 4 people, but they took up the whole room and couldn’t fit in the chairs.



Britney Spears has had a great deal of attention over her body at the MTV Video music Awards Sunday night. She’s been called her everything from out-of-shape to fat. Luckily, with the rough year she’s had, Britney is ready to get herself into a really good eating disorder.

Even though she may not have abs of steel anymore, she still has a really good figure. And her fans have to remember that she is now the mother of 2 children. Of course, it would be nice if Britney remembered that.



In Minnesota, a home-owner and burglar got into a scuffle, whereupon the burglar’s shirt ripped, and then his pants, underwear and shoes came off in a tackle attempt, forcing him to run away naked. Luckily, it was just an unarmed burglary, not a stick-up.

Since the burglar got away with no loot, authorities had no need to search his sack.

The burglar was caught and arrested for burglary and not concealing his weapon.

He probably will be found guilty. He was caught red-handed, among other things.

It is unknown if the burglar will hire his own lawyer or rely on a pubic defender.

If convicted, his sentence could be severe, according to the penal code.

There could be a dramatic turn in court, though, as the defense already has a new wrinkle.
