Sorry - the cops where use lasers, not radar. They're line-of-sight,
so by the time your detector sees them they've seen *you*.

I would suggest a water pistol. That's the only firearm
legal in Canada without a Federal permit (up to a certain
calibre only, though).

Got a typo there, Sean. The cops use Tasers, not Lasers. So, for your
own sake, don't carry a stapler.

That's why only branded HD motor oil should be used in a Harley.
It contains (3B,18a)-30-hydroxy-11,30-dioxoolean-12-en-3-yl
2-O-B-D-glucopyranuronosyl-B-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid molecules,
which, when viewed under an electron microscope, almost exactly
resemble the Harley Davidson company logo.

I does? News to me. And does HD exlcusively use ball and roller
bearings? Are there no plain bearings anywhere?
