Limiting cell phone usage is a common goal of many legislatures, but California's lawmakers want to up the ante, adding more than that to the list of what motorists can and can't do behind the wheel.
A bill passed by the California state Senate would subject drivers who:
- talk on the phone
- put on makeup
- drink
- eat
- smoke
- interact with pets or kids
- read
- write
- tune the radio or
- program hand-held devices like Blackberries to:
fines of $35 for the first offense and $150 for the second.
Aw, fuck you.
Oops, sorry, I forgot this is a family blog.
But, just for this one post, consider that the sponsor of this bill is Kevin Murray, who was supposedly caught getting a BJ in a state-owned car. The car was, however, not in motion.

Damn the legislature for they shall outlaw breathing given time enough.
But getting a blow job while at work sounds like something worth applause.
Now I'm torn. So like Clinton, so voting for a bill that everyone knows will never pass.
