In da famous children's book, "Bert Dow, Deep-Water Man", it states dat Bert's make-and-break engine was so noisy dat whenever he was heading out into da bay in his jon-boat to fish for cod, everyone in da entire coastal area knew about it. Obviously there was no town oardinance regarding acceptable ways of propelling a boat out of da harbor!

In da "Veiled Lodger", da Great Detective of Baker Street happily shows Watson da bottle of still-unused almond-scented liquid toxin dat had been sent to him by da tale's (fortunately still alive, thanks to Holmes's sympathetic kindness and counseling) leading lady, and implies dat there will therefore be no need for any prussicution in dat particular case.

Ideal for someone with a foot-fetish and frequent feelings of loneliness/depression, since giving a good friend a foot-rub can work wonders to cheer the person up (well, of course, it can often work both ways, also).
Being on a "friends with benefoots" relationship with someone is the perfect "happy medium" when you crave "closeness" with the other person, but at the same time you are trying to avoid doing anything that could likely cause concern to the person's family or other friends.

(1) Something you definitely don't wanna have in your car if you get pulled over. About the only exception, of course, would be if you're merely transporting empty gin-bottles to the redemption center; if this is the case, however, you will want to thoroughly drain and then neatly bag up said containers, and also either snugly cross-tie the bags' mouths or seal them with string or wire-twists so that (A) not much alcohol-fumes will escape to invalidly create a telltale fermented-beverage smell at your driver's door window, and (B) the officer can see that you weren't sipping from any of the containers yourself.
(2) The "wide latitude of interpretation" that the "right to remain silent" amendment is often subject to.

"I am hauling empty gin-bottles to the redemption center" is hardly an incriminating statement under most circumstances, so there should be no problem with any "open fifths", since conceivably you would have no need to remain silent if a policeman asks what's with all the bags of liquor-bottles in your back seat or trunk.
