By order of the Council of Mandates, all citizens are required to start their day by performing the ancient ritual of "Morning Stretching" for exactly 17 minutes and 32 seconds.
One must stand on one leg, with the other foot lifted and held aloft in a precise 45 degree angle to the ground. The body must be bent at a 90 degree angle to the floor, with the arms stretched overhead and the hands grasping for the sky.
Failure to comply will result in penalties, up to and including the forced viewing of reruns of "The Price is Right".

The Enforcers will be armed with an arsenal of foam blocks, rubber chickens, and an endless supply of "Get up and Stretch!"-shouts.
