I always knew I was a rebel.

Apparently--I make no promises of the veracity of this statement but I've seen it in more than one place--apparently, in Seattle, it is illegal to carry an occupied aquarium or fishbowl onto a bus, as the sloshing of the water may disturb the other passengers. Well, how do you think I brought Erin's fish home with me over the break? That's right. I'm a law-breaker.

Doesn't look as if that's true. Although farting is apparently illegal (no odors!)

But is it a metro law, or a city law? If it's a city law, it might be somewhere else...
(C'mon, Phil, I'm having fun being rebellious here...)

Well, if you are willing to admit to B.O., then you ARE violating the law every time. Because you can't bring odors, even those produced by your body. Hence farting too.

I'd admit if it were true. ...I have brought tuna sandwiches on board...

I do wonder how such laws would come in effect. Was there a sudden plague of sloshing fish bowls on the public transport, I wonder? Or a council member with hydrophobia who took the bus during the annual Fish Owners Convention?

It certainly gives a few nice mental images... :D

Haha, I know...I wasn't sure why on earth that was a law. (There are some weird laws around, though.) I like the image of a sudden plague of sloshing...:)
