I'm thinking of you guys and your brave crusade :) (original) (raw)
Where I live there's a bus every half hour thisaway round the circular route and one bus every half hour thataway round he route the other way. When they arrive is, however, random.So I stand at the bustop where I can't see the bus coming because of a corner, and look down the straight part of the road for buses coming the other way.
Every time I sprint across the road I think of you guys :)
However I have altyered the interests in one of my other journals to include several things theoretically illegal in the UK. Namely:
Drunk in charge of a horse
Drunk in charge of a punt (boat) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punt_%28boat%29)
Eating a meal of more than 2 courses on Christmas Day
Playing football on Christmas Day
Being male and a freeman and not practising archery every Sunday
Owning a television without paying the government 120 pounds per year
Riding a bike with LED-based lights.
Saying that the Queen may die one day (life emprisonment for that one.. it's High Treason)
(needless to say not all of these Statutes are actually enforced!; the only one that is rigourously enforced is the one about the TV; (in fact if you DON'T have a TV you are regularly harrassed by the Government for your lack of payment! :( )
So I've decided to let you guys know that I'm in France where jaywalking is the norm. In fact, I don't even think it's illegal here... Soon,…
A few days back, I saw a jaywalking comrade. A woman was crossing four lanes of heavy traffic, while talking on her cell phone.
Greetings, dear minions fellow jaywalkers! In light of the recently exposed crusade against our kin, I have spent that last days slaving…
