What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

People, People, People. Every day, somewhere in this great Country, there are always a handful of you that make me stop and scratch my head. Case on point: A couple in Powder Springs, Georgia, is opening an indoor shooting range with a full service bar, serving alcohol to it's patrons! What could possibly go wrong? The owners of this new establishment say, basically, Georgia law already allows gun owners to carry their weapons, concealed or otherwise, into restaurants that serve alcohol so, 'what's the big deal'? What, indeed.
Next we learn that the New York City Department of Education has been stocking nurse's offices at 13 city high schools with the Plan B "morning after" birth control pill. It's handed out, free of charge, to students 14 and older, no parental permission needed. What could possibly go wrong? It's not like it will lead to more unprotected sex and a possible explosion of STDs or HIV. Why waste time with condoms (also provided free of charge) when you can pop a pill the next day.Hey, they're kids, they make mistakes. Problem solved.
Did you know that this drought has driven up the cost of feed corn so much that farmers have turned to an alternative. Yup. Candy Corn. The same stuff you sprinkle on your Halloween cupcakes, cows are now eating for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Feed corn just turns to sugar after they eat it anyway. What could possibly go wrong? I wonder what the affect on the human body will be after, you know, eating cows on a perpetual sugar high. Probably nothing. Hey, the growth hormones didn't kill us, did they?
After the Seattle Seahawks upset the Green Bay Packers last night on a much disputed final call by the replacement refs, Wisconsin State Senator (D) Jon Erpenbach Tweeted NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's phone number. What could possibly go wrong with that?  Erpenbach is, by the way, one of 14 Democratic senators who fled to Illinois for three weeks last year to avoid voting on their Governor's proposal to fight that state's Public Employees Union. I guess some unions are scarier than others.
