I'm just sad now

California school-lunch reform. Okay, fine. Americans are fat, so let's try to reduce the amount of fat-inducing food available to kids.

Am I the only one who cringed at this? "Mr Schwarzenegger signed the bills after walking 1km (0.62m) with bicycle racing champion Lance Armstrong and hundreds of schoolchildren."

Wow. One entire kilometer? Which is not even a mile? I'm so impressed.

My opinion: A more effective and less-economically devastating method for keeping kids healthier would be to cut some school buses. Make them walk. Exercise = healthy.

And yeah, it's sad that schools are funded more by, say, Coke than by the actual government.
