No more saggy pants for Arkansas school children

LITTLE ROCK, Ark (Reuters) – Arkansas students who love their sagging pants should soon leave them at home.
Arkansas Governor Mike Beebe signed a bill on Wednesday that bans students from wearing clothing that exposes "underwear, buttocks or the breast of a female."
Arkansas educators have long complained about the drooping attire, such as young men wearing saggy jeans that expose the top of colorful boxer shorts.
"We feel the bill can improve the learning environment in schools," said Donna Morey, president of the Arkansas Education Association.

2. Get ready for those reading scores to soar!

Nothing like an "improved learning environment" to facilitate learning.

3. Pointless, but I must say

that I never thought anyone could come up with uglier and more ridiculous clothes than some of us wore back in the 1970s. Walking around downtown Mpls everyday, I see that I was clearly and grievously wrong in that supposition.

4. Next step should be ball caps must be worn with bills facing forward. nt
