Fifth Amendment

The infamously-controversial and widely-abused "white lightnin' defense" article in the Bill Of Rights. it allows for leniency based on whether the offender was intoxicated (ie., if he'd consumed a "fifth") during the commission of his crime.

Ollie North pled the Fifth Amendment during the Iran-Contra scandal, but I dunno... he sure as shootin' looked sober to me!

abandonware

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.

Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.

The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
