You don't need the law for that situation, a stick will do quite nicely.

And a Buick works well for people walking down the street.

Or the sidewalk for that matter.

Screaming children.........a REAL big peeve with me.....never could understand it. Nothing that a few whacks wouldn't cure real fast.

My peeve for today, people who don't put 2 way switches back to the ORIGINAL position. More irritating than the toilet paper roll put on backwards

Jeb, this is what it's all about..........when you are older and have property that you have invested alot of money in and pay alot in taxes to the town for, you will better appreciate hating to have to stand outside on Mischief night trying to protect that property from "sweet young children" who are out of control.

I hate parents sometimes

*phew* I got the toilet paper right, I was terribly worried there

I'm a bachelor, live alone and have a sign across from my toilet (so those sitting can see it)

I'm not a bad parent....and I keep William in on Devil's Night...but he chooses to do so anyways which I admire! He says that way no one can blame him for anything! Our neighbors are the gang-up kind who will lie to get someone in trouble just for the fun of it! Tonight William will be across the street helping our friend Connie pass out candy...this is the first year he quit trick-or-treating himself! Too bad...I'll miss the candy!
