*Men at Work*

Artist Michael Landy staged a two-week show during which he
pulverized every single thing he owns (7,006 objects,
including a Saab) as an anti-consumerist statement (London).
Roman Catholic Bishop Juan Antonio Reig said birth-control
pills were acceptable for nuns stationed in war zones where
the risk of rape is high (Segorbe, Spain). A New Mexico
legislator introduced an antifraud bill for livestock shows,
banning steer-beautification measures (dyes, wigs) except
for natural shampooing and blow-drying. The Minnesota
Supreme Court upheld the DUI-forfeiture of a man's $40,000
SUV, which was confiscated by police when the man was found
drunk, sitting in the driver's seat listening to music, in
his driveway, on the day he bought the vehicle.

It seems a little extreme for the guy in Minnisota to loose his $40,000 suv, after all he was in his own driveway but then again, the drink and drive laws must be upheld...what a lesson. what a signal to others...
