Holed up in Texas

Did you know that in Texas, you can be jailed for owning more than six dildos? (Not a joke, there are people in jail.)
(Reading further, it seems the law was changed recently. Still a worthwhile view at humanity though.)

Well, considering Bush is from Texas, I can believe anything about Texas :( Awful icky state.

Do they raid your bedroom dressors? This is too far out.

Ah'm tellin' ya, pardner : the day they make a federal law punishing politicians who pass f&%$#ing moronic laws, that'll be the end of good ole America under Gawd as we know it.

But fear not. That day is anything but close, and the Golden Age isn't about to get the drop on us, no siree!

It's closer than you think. In America now they can search your home, your personal being and email WITHOUT A WARRANT........all they need is suspicion, thanks to gestapo bush and his right-wing thugs.
America is quickly becoming Little Germany (WW2) style. It's true. Beware.

Seth,
This is precisely what I sarcastically meant : the day where idiotic laws will be forbidden in the USA is anything but close.
Even more so for totalitarian laws, obviously. :-(

Google for 'wierd laws Texas' and find out all the other wacky laws they have e.g in Clarendon, TX "It is illegal to dust any public building with a feather duster." I believe there was a recent attempt to cross the USA, breaking one of these wierd laws in each state. What fun!!

I bet they also have a law about mis-spelling "Weird" somewhere along the way. For instance, it could get you seven days of jayl at Yale University. ;-)

No offense, Anonymous, just making sure that web search actually suceeds. Unless ya were talkin' wid' a southern accent, y'all?

Isn't there some US state where a law makes it illegal to be an idiot in public? It would allow an impeachment procedure against the President... :-P

Excellent point.

Pascal, we pray Impeachment comes quickly. Bush has shamed America and isolated the world from America. Ford pardoned Nixon and nobody ever forgot that.
Ford on the other hand was an embaressment as well.

It must be a tough decision when buying your seventh dildo -- which of the previous ones to let go?

Just six of them is hardly a collection worth mentioning anyway.

Do double enders count as one or two? Iwant to be in court when that one's brought to trial.

Hey, don't insult my collection, Eolake! ;)

Heck, sorry. Quality counts too.

Honestly, you guys are a bunch of hopeless merry perverts...
That's what I love in you! :-D

Proud black man,
Indeed, I often say that this is what upsets me the most : America is a great country with huge potential and several proud accomplishments to its credit already. It should be performing in the world a role opposite to the one Bush has chosen for it. The best way to become very powerful is by having friends everywhere, not by stepping on everyone! But this notion takes a minimum of intelligence to understand, of course...

America in 19th century. Perhaps my favourite country.

America in 21st century. Perhaps my least favourite country.

Something went badly ashtray in America during the 20th century.

Agreed. He has brought more terrorism to the regions than already existed.
743 days left and Bush is history. Thank goodness.
