A relic. Thought you demolished that particular windmill whereas I just ticked off Sancho. You keep what's left of that windmill. I'll purport to stick with your solution to the conundrum and focus on Dulcinea. http://www.pdngallery.com/legends/legends6/large/08.html Yup. A relic.

Now it is I suppose the relic of a simpler time, which some among us cannot bear to part with for sentimental reasons, and which others purport to take offense at for reasons of their own. But it's fair to say that I tilt at other windmills Paul, and will leave that particular one to you.

Very well put. A pity that the Pledge of Allegiance in the great nation of ours is not quite in sync with that admirable sentiment. Since 1954, anyway. From 1892 until 1954, religion had not yet pledged to divide the indivisible. “…we handle that particular conundrum by ah, not having a religion.”

And it's interesting to note that while the judge first says "...Yemeni law..." he clarifies what that REALLY means when he says "...Islamic sharia law...". It's a different justice book in so many ways isn't it.
