Whew! With all this legislation, it?s a wonder we?re not all sharing a prison cell right now. Granted, something tells me the Los Angeles Police Department has bigger fish to fry than popping people who dare to eat oranges while bathing, and that most people who saw me catching some shut-eye on top of a fridge in Pennsylvania wouldn?t call the cops on me, but you never know when you might come across that rare whistle-blower who wants you persecuted to the fullest extent of the law, so it?s probably better to be safe than sorry. The next time I tie up my elephant at a parking meter in Florida, I?ll be sure to bring a pocket full of quarters.
