Breaking the law. Breaking the law!

Breaking the law! Stupid laws that is. On newsobserver.com:

Richard Smith is a British criminal mastermind who admits to planning a major crime spree across 26 U.S. states this summer.

Americans need not be worried. It's only the weird laws he plans to break.

Laws he is planning to break:

  • California, to ride a bike in a swimming pool.

  • Utah, to go whale hunting.

Illegaal software downloaden?

Het breindode varken is druk bezig tegen illegale software te keer te gaan. Maar wel op een verkeerde manier. Van de
