Since the Dark Ages Are Making a Comeback
Since the Religious Right is working with the Addict to bring us back into the Dark Age, a concession they could make to appease me is to bring back public humiliation as a from of punishment. The first one I would like to enacted is "The Lott-Clinton Whistle While You Work Act" The fact that Lott and Clinton co-sponsored it would show bi-parisan support. The Lott-Clinton Whistle While While You Work Act, would have the goal of stopping people from whistling while walking the hallways at work and the punishment for the offense would be that you have to wear a cowbell for a week and a sign that says, "I'm sorry I'm the jack ass who was whistling last week" Passersby would be allowed to ring your bell with a small mallet attached to the bell.

i got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell.
you know, ironically, there's a huge movement to bring back public shaming. one of the attys I worked with in my previous life was really active in public shaming legal policy.
I vote yes. People whistling in work hallways is a close second to people whistling, or cutting their fingernails, as the worst possible thing to do in a public place. Why do people think that's acceptable behavior? It's not. At all.
