As I'm sure lots of us are aware, many years ago, duels ('pistols at dawn') were used as a way between civilians (especially the upper-class) to resolve problems - the much-overlooked 'you're dead, thus I'm right' agreement. Having looked into these duels, I've found that some versions of the "code duello" provide for a referee to regulate the duel. Sometimes, he would also be armed with a pistol. It was his duty to shoot down either of the combatants who looked as though he may be about to break the rules (firing at an opponent's back, for instance). My thought on the subject is this: Wouldn't that make football much more interesting?  |

I still think the best use of that word evah~ was between Vyvian and Mike on the Young Ones, when Vyvian attached the lawnmower engine to the vacuum cleaner... Mike: Well Vyvian, it's safe to say that thing's a hell of a sucker - and I don't mean it's easily fooled. But it's too dangerous, you're not allowed to use it. Vyvian: Yeah, but Mike- Mike: No! Vyvian: *jams hands in pockets and sulks* ...poof. ;D |
