Saddam Hussein is said to have decreed a fancy golden public
drinking chalice in a small village as "unstealable", under pain of
who-knows-what. And so far it is. I'm not sure who's resolve I'd
rather test - The Mob (who of course don't exist ;-) ) or Hussein

There was an Aussie song ages ago called The Newcastle Song
(I think) in which 4 blokes out for a night on the town get "monstered
by a 9ft tall Hell's Angel". One of them leans out the car and says
cockily "You know who you're pickin' ?" While he's thinking about it,
off they go into the traffic. Nothing wrong with a well-placed bluff,
but get ready to run for it if it gets called
