is over six feet in length.
#6314In Tennessee, it is illegal to shoot any game other than whales from a
moving automobile.
#6315In the olden days in England, you could be hung for stealing a sheep or a
loaf of bread. However, if a sheep stole a loaf of bread and gave it to
you, you would only be tried for receiving, a crime punishable by forty
lashes with the cat or the dog, whichever was handy. If you stole a dog
and were caught, you were punished with twelve rabbit punches, although it
was hard to find rabbits big enough or strong enough to punch you.
-- Mike Harding, "The Armchair Anarchist's Almanac"

along at any time, unless he has been married for more than 12 months.
#6318It has long been noticed that juries are pitiless for robbery and full of

of infanticide.
-- Edmond About
