Bill would outlaw fat diners
If you haven’t heard about Rep. Ted Mayhall’s bill that would prevent restaurants from serving obese patrons, you can read about it in the national press here and here (scores of more outlets, as well as Leno, Letterman and Stewart will likely dutifully follow suit).
We’re not sure what Rep. Mayhall expects in terms of support for this bill, but we’re pretty dern sure the Mississippi Hotel and Restaurant Association won’t be enthusiastic.
