:wink:
I checked Webster's Dictionary, and I could brandish him with the cattle prod. Cattle prods, as I'm used to seeing, are electrical devices with which you control the cows...or whatever animals...through electric shock.

Kind of how my doctors used to control me at the ward...

Anyhow:
HEAR YE! HEAR YE! Court is now in session. Please rise! The Honorable Sir Anthony Cecil Hogmanay Melchett presiding. When he takes his seat, you can all set yo' big butts down!!

GET DOWN!!

brandish vb. 1. (tr.) to wave or flourish (a weapon etc.) in a triumphant, threatening or ostentatious way. ~n. 2. a threatening or defiant flourish.

Thus, you may brandish the cattle prod at the defendant, but unless you're feeling particularly strong, you probably don't want to be brandishing the defendant himself... :smile:

But enough of this frippery! Bring forth the accused!

*Quickly runs out of the court to drag the condemned back to the...um, court.*

Okay, here he is. Bound and gagged.

I added the gag. :big_grin:

I agree with my client's statement. The current baliff is abusive and incompetent.

Okay, I'm confused...

Is court actually being held here at the Fan Club or at the Density Planning?

This is supposed to be the BFC, in which we all share how much we love our Byron.

I'll start:

Um...
Uh...




uh...


Um, Matt, you go first...
