Almost any law exists for some really good reason. I'm just trying to imagine what sort of catastrophic incident happened in the past to encourage lawmakers to forbid the keeping of donkeys in bathtubs!

No! This is not a cool recipe idea for the Dragon's Breath Chili Cook-Off!

This is going to be a problem for me....
1. I was going to bring the new William Hung CD for music in the Chili Cookoff (NOT).
2. But more seriously....I sing off key ALL the time....do you think singing in the shower counts?
I'd just hate to break local laws/customs....you know....when in Rome, kinda thing.
Hugs,

>>Only if you don't include your Donkey in the shower.
I believe you could sing your *** off in the shower, just not the bathtub.

Here are some words you can practice using too. These are on the menu at Deadbeat Pete's in Townsend, TN. If you are doing the Hilltops & Hollers rally you can eat there when you are done.....really good mexi-food. I will warn you though, it is NOT fast food.
