In Singapore there is a fine for pissing in the elevator.

Was this really an issue?

If there is a law, there was an issue.

Sigmund Freud the famous psychoanalysis, who saw sex in everything, is famous for saying “sometimes a cigar is just a cigar”—Freud was an avid cigar smoker. He was also infatuated with his penis… You figure that one out!

Sigmund Freud also had the hots for his mom but lived in denial of this, insisting instead that everyone else was in love with their mothers.   ::)  His best friend can be quoted as saying "Ouchee, what a great comeback, Sigy..."

Summer in North America largely consists of people complaining that it's too hot when it's hot, and people (usually the same ones) complaining it's "not really summer" if it's not hot.

The total combined weight of all of the ants in the world is greater than the total combined weight of all the humans in the world.  (Don't ask how they determined that.  I saw it on PBS).  It takes an average of 100,000 ants to weigh one pound.

If the government has no knowledge of aliens, then why does Title 14, Section 1211 of the Code of Federal Regulations, implemented on July 16, 1969 make it illegal for U. S. citizens to have any contact with extraterrestrials or their vehicles?
