"After being charged 20 pounds for a 10 pounds overdraft, 30 year old Michael Howard of Leeds changed his name by deed poll to "Yorkshire Bank Plc are Fascist bastards". The Bank has now asked him to close his account, and Mr Bastards has asked
them to repay the 69p balance by cheque, made out in his new name."
One more piece of random drivel while I avoid work.
Some Countries are just Crazy !
In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the
animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is
punishable by death.
In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a womans genitals, but
is forbidden from looking directly at them during the examination.
He may only see their reflection in a mirror.
Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse.
This also
applies to undertakers; the sex organs of the deceased must
be covered
at all times.
The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.
There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the
countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having
sex for the first time. Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden
for virgins to marry.
In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her
adulterous
husband, but may only do so with her bare hands. (The husbands lover,
on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.)
In Cali, Columbia, a woman may only have sex with her
husband, and the
first time this happens her mother must be in the room to witness the
act.
In Santa Cruz, Bolivia it is illegal for a man to have sex with a
woman and her daughter at the same time. (Presumably this was a big
enough problem that they had to pass this law?)
In Maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines with
one exception: prophylactics may be dispensed from a vending machine
only
"in places where alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the
premises."
