Beijing bans bald taxi drivers

If you're heading to Beijing next year for the Olympics you will not see one bald cabbie.  The Chinese city department has put into effect a new rule that will outlaw beards and shaved heads for the men taxi drivers.  This move comes just two months after the department banned women taxi drivers from wearing "too-fancy" hairstyles. [What that means, we don't know.] As an extra measure to clean up the image of the city and the people, drivers have already been ordered not to spit, eat or smoke in cabs while they drive.
