Texas School District Bans Grillz


ARLINGTON, Texas (July 11) - The school district here has expanded its dress codes to include mouths - and earlobes.

Students may no longer wear mouth jewelry known as "grillz" - shiny teeth caps - or the earlobe-stretching practice known as "gauging."

"The district is having to respond to fads because they've become distracters or a safety hazard for those around them," said Malcolm Turner, the district's executive director of student services.

The nearby Irving, Grand Prairie and DeSoto districts also ban grillz, and some also address gauging - the process of placing increasingly large items in the ears to stretch the lobes.

But students said the body modification is simply self-expression.

"Really, a grill is just like an earring. It's fashion," said junior Devonte Wright, 16.

But school officials said they hoped to teach students that life would require them to follow specific regulations in specific settings.

"We want to instill in them a sense of modesty and a sense of community," said school board trustee Gloria Pena. "We're preparing them for the work force, and in the work force there are rules."[/b]

I once dated a guy who had a gold tooth cap. Of course he was someone who went to jail for 4 months (stealing hubcaps) where he promptly forgot we were dating thanks to the continual stream of MJ he smoked. (my assumptions from well...if you spoke to the guy you'd understand)

This is about when I learned that I should stop dating bad guys. Especially idiotic bad guys who wear tooth caps.
