A little late on this but... From here: A Rhode Island public school has decided the Easter bunny is too Christian and renamed him Peter Rabbit, and a state legislator is so hopping mad he has introduced an "Easter Bunny Act" to save the bunny's good name. "Like many Rhode Islanders I'm quite frustrated by people trying to change traditions that we've held in this country for 150 years, like the Easter bunny," Rhode Island State Rep. Richard Singleton told "Good Morning America Weekend Edition."

I'm sorry but this is just overdoing it. Link

A Bloomfield Hills school is enforcing a new policy that bans the use of a popular Web site. St. Hugo of the Hills Catholic School students were told recently that under a new school policy, called Think First, Stay Safe, the use of MySpace.com will be prohibited at school and at home, reported WDIV-TV. The policy states that students enrolled at the school can't have a MySpace.com account or any similar type of personal site, according to a news release.
