Hmm. Sounds pretty interesting to me; I can only imagine looking
down and seeing my penis animated in 24 bit color.
Tie a string around it; wait for gangrene; look.

Well, hell! If the police THOUGHT they were interfering with a religious
ceremony, then their actions clearly violate the Constitution's provision for
freedom of religion. I'd stick to the religious ceremony angle, and sue the
