Guest guest Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 New Texas Legislation Would Require Whiskey Bottles To Be Shot Out Of Air Immediately After Being Emptied AUSTIN, TX-A new piece of legislation proposed yesterday on the floor of the Texas Legislature would require that all whiskey bottles be tossed overhead and shot clean out of the air the moment they are emptied. " Every Texan is responsible for disposing of his or her whiskey bottles in the proper fashion, " Plano lawmaker Mitch Travelstead said. " By law, this means no longer stopping to wipe your lips with your shirt sleeve, or howling like some rabid dog at that big yellow moon. It's time we got serious. " While the new law will likely be strictly enforced, legislators maintained that those without access to firearms could also dispose of their whiskey bottles by having their children toss them off the back of a speeding pickup truck, or by depositing them into the nearest recycling bin.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 We're behind the times on this one! Louisiana and Mississippi have this in place already. It's mainly used when you pass the National Registry or have the urge to marry your cousin.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Sir! Proper ettiquette requires the use of a pistol or rifle. The use of a shotgun is akin to shooting ducks on the water.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I have a technical question. Does the law also apply to plastic bottles? For example, I have emptied several tequila bottles in the last few days so as to practice my aim, but find that I can't get them very high up into the air, which caused me, in one case, to commit a Dick Cheney gaffe (don't worry, my friend's OK but a little sore in spots). Should one compensate for the lack of " heft " of a plastic bottle by partially filling it with water before launching? I will be conducting further experiments as time and money permit.
