Here are some articles I basically stole wholesale from Pat's Papers

One on suits by prisoners to obtain dental floss. I sympathize, but since I know that dental floss has been used in multiple - that's more than one! - prison escapes, I can kinda see the point of the prisons as well.

One on teenager's and sleep needs. Nothing new here, but the commenters make it sound like we haven't known this for 20+ years already!

And here's one on this kid who is on a mission to get a picture of himself posing with one of every animal on the earth.

Also, a freebie I got from a couple of people on whether or not monkey bars are dangerous. Read this with it.

On the first, it astonishes me that some company hasn't stepped in and developed little rounded dental picks that could be safely sold - not as a matter of kindness, but because they'd probably actually get to sell them and get some money. Or the inmates could agitate for one of those forced-water flossers.
