Traumatizing Pastry

You may remember the brouhaha from a few weeks ago when an eight year-old boy was suspended from school for chewing on his Pop-Tart in such a way that some idiot thought it resembled a gun. The NRA have subsequently awarded him a lifetime membership. That's nice. I guess. It's all pretty damned stupid (as is demonstrated by the complete boredom with whole matter evinced by the boy in question), but here's where it gets surreal... well, more surreal:

Park Elementary told parents it would give counseling to any children who needed it after the Pop-Tart incident.

Counseling. For watching another kid eating a Pop-Tart.

On that note, I give up for this week. Kentucky bourbon, here I come!
