OK, if I leave for the airport right now, catch a 3 hour flight to Milwaukee and rent a car to drive 1 hour north. I can still make it for lunch with the one hour time change!!!

Y'all get a dictionary. I resign my self-appended editor position. (:^D)

Americanism, computers and the Internet are some of the worst things that have ever happened to the English language.

No need. Pick up a package of Johnsonville Brats at your loocal grocery. I like to boil them briefly in a pan on the grill before grilling over charcoal.

Throw the book at him.

I like to simmer them in cheap beer and onions until they are plump and just starting to turn gray, then put them on the grill. I also like a hot mustard with horseradish in it. Not to crazy about sour-kraut.

Throw the book at him.

Don't the police just usually say "here is your citation now appear in court in thirty days...Mr. Horowitz."

Johnsonville brats and Leinenkugles were born for each other.

I would think so, but it ought be mandatory for enforcement officials find out whose documents were stolen/forged and notify those of potential damages done them and hold him indefinitely so they could seek civil relief, if it's needed.

We can indefinitely hold non-citizens without warrant, don't you know???

Far be it from illegals to commit a crime. /sarc Forget the fact they they are by their very nature IL-LEGAL!

Illegal Aliens using forged documents is not a crime since they are only coming here "to take the jobs lazy Americans won't do. There is not crime by definition - we have already established that by the mere fact crossing the border is not a crime. /s
