Big Brother - Oh Brother.

"Can I get you some drinks or appetizers? And by the way, what's your BMI?"

Sound odd? It is. Last Friday, Mississippi (the fattest state in the US with over 30% of adults being obese) introduced a bill that would prevent restaurants from serving customers with a BMI of over 30 certain kinds of food. Oh yeah, THAT'S gonna be pretty.

Here's a copy of the bill incase you want to see for yourself - it's HB 282. If you want to see the full text, there's a link to the PDF within the page.
