Stupid news round-up

[dianec42]

Just to prove the Americans don't have a monopoly on stupid news...

An 18-year-old female CONVICTED VIOLENT OFFENDER has gotten out of wearing a tracking tag because it would "look stupid" if worn with a skirt.

Cops giving an anti-drug demonstration for school children plant a bag of speed in a 10-year-old girl's bag and forget to take it back.

And finally, in a lengthy article about the whole Sony DRM "rootkit" flap, it emerges that "the first Trojan horse to attempt to use the Sony BMG cloaking code started spreading, but bugs in the program prevented it from operating correctly."

So does that mean I can get off by wearing my kilt?

It depends, on whom were you thinking of inflicting grievous bodily harm? (And can I help?)

I will testify as to your stunning fashion sense, if you need someone to take the stand.
