This has absolutely nothing to do with college football – at least I fervently hope it doesn’t – but I can’t let an opener like this pass without mention.
Floridians are going to have to start pulling up their pants and stop having sex with animals soon.

“Groucho’s Freedonia meets the redneck Pyongyang”
”Never let it be said the Florida Legislature isn’t a stickler for the tiny details of governance, leaving no stone unturned in its unrelenting quest to turn the state into Groucho Marx’s Freedonia meets a subtropical, redneck Pyongyang….
Over the last hectic 60 days or so, the Florida Legislature has burned the midnight oil to legalize bribing members of the Florida Legislature (call this merely constituent service), turned teaching into a profession only slightly more rewarding than Osama bin Laden’s courier, opened the gates to pave over wetlands and, aghast that so many citizens were exercising their right to vote, moved swiftly to make it harder to vote. Whew, that was a close one.
But wait! There’s more!
No doubt you have probably turned to your spouse and said, “Sweetie Bunchkin-Pie, dag-nabit, why is it Florida doesn’t have an official state amphibian?” I know I have.
After all, how can a state on the cutting edge of the 18th century expect to lure business investment to Florida if corporations were to know we don’t have an official slimy thing critter to honor? Thank goodness, state Sen. Steve Oelrich, R-Lower Yoknapatawpha County,….
Still, the Legislature has been quite consumed with its own labors, finally addressing the “Stop Having Sex With Animals, Right Now! And That Means You, Bub! Bestiality Bill.” Who would have ever guessed date night with a manatee was a particular problem in Florida, unless this was nothing more than an effort to keep up with Mississippi social mores?”

I live in Jacksonville and happen to like it alot. In fact, there is alot to like about Florida once you get past the world’s worst CFB fans. So let me say that this state, now my home, hardly has the market cornered on thuggish looking young men with their pants pulled low and I’m willing to bet that there are other states with beastiality issues. Although I’m surprised that someone actually championed this piece of legislation. Maybe one of her liberal constituents had a little fun with her livestock.

A man in rural Georgia was being prosecuted under a similar law in Georgia for having sex with a sheep. He decided to confess on the witness stand while under cross examination by the DA. The prosecutor asked the man to describe if the sheep felt any pain during this ordeal. The man responded, “No. In fact the sheep turned its head and licked my hand while we were doing it.” The prosecutor knew the case was in trouble when he heard one member of the jury say to another, “Yep. A good sheep will do that.”
