The Scales of Justice

...hold no water for LAW BREAKERS and FISH THIEVES.

At one otherwise uneventful stop in the closing stages of America's mid-term elections this week, George Allen, who is running for a second term as Virginia's Republican senator, had visibly to rein in his temper.

Having been asked about two alleged criminal records from his student days – fishing without a licence and speeding... "I mean, getting a citation for fishing without a licence when I was a student – now that's an important issue."


Yup. That's what they all say when they're trollin' for votes.

Sorry, son, that don't fly here. Hook 'em, Danno.

Mike, the "thing" is a largemouth bass and that is an eel or a plastic replica lure of one. We need to go fishing...

I haven't caught a bass since I was 10 or 11.
