| Post subject: | The Catted Anarchist |
I was hanging around B-52 this afternoon, helping hundreds of other players feel good about their scores, when the question was asked: WHICH JUDGE ONCE FINED A CORPSE FOR CARRYING A CONCEALED WEAPON? 1. ROY BEAN 2. JUDGE JUDY 3. HARRY STONE 4. AARON JUDGE 5. ALAN DERSHOWITZ Or some such list. Quite unbidden, a fable by Ambrose Bierce popped into mind. Thanks in advance to Dover Press for not suing me for abusing their copyright. Yes, I know we're not supposed to discuss politics on this post, so if there are any Anarchists on this thread, pray heed, this is a trigger alert......... An Anarchist Orator who had been struck in the face with a Dead Cat by some Respector of the Law to him unknown, had the Dead Cat arrested and taken before a Magistrate. "Why do you appeal to the law?" asked the Magistrate. "You who go in for the abolition of law?" "That," replied the Anarchist, who was not without a certain hardness of head, "that is none of your business; I am not bound to be consistent. You sit here to do justice between me and this Dead Cat." "Very well," said the Magistrate, putting on the black cap and a solemn look. "As the Accused makes no defense, and is undoubtedly guilty, I sentence her to be eaten by the Public Executioner; and as that position happens to be vacant, I appoint the Plaintiff to fill that post, without bonds." |
