A trial date has been set for a Utah teen who was arrested for Rapping his order for a cheeseburger at a McDonalds. Here's the link to the article:

There's enough of stupidity around that it makes it hard to really pick just one, but this is a good example. I remember going to a Kentucky Fried Chicken and ordering a dozen wings. The person on the other end of the speaker said that there weren't enough wings for a dozen but she could give me an order of six or nine. I said, "In that case, I'll take two orders of six" and long with a couple of other possibilities. Sure she got a little annoyed. I was a little annoyed that I couldn't get an order of 12 chicken wings from a chicken franchise for crying out loud. Well, thank God I wasn't arrested.
Secondly, I can't express my gratitude enough to the police and legal system in American Fork, Utah who have seen fit to spend what will be thousands of tax payers dollars to try to prosecute this disturbing and criminal behavior. They tracked these kids down with a license plate number. Hell, I was hit by another car in Knoxville, TN, copied down the license plate number while the driver was fleeing the scene and and gave the officers the information. I couldn't pay the police enough to convince them to track the guy down.
My dog was attacked by a pitbull that wasn't leashed in Colorado. My poor dogs face was torn open and I spent $400 to have him stitched up. I called the police from the site of the attack and they refused to respond.
But somehow, some kid with a GOOD sense of humor Raps his order into a McDonalds drive thru speaker and the justice system jumps into action. There's very little you can do in response to this type of stupidity. My response is this: When the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) comes knocking on my door asking for donations to assist their comrades, I politely inform them that they are trespassing and ask them to leave.
