Perhaps Deliberation Lasting a Minimum of 20 Minutes Is Required

Sorry, I just can’t resist….

Here’s the lead paragraph from this report in yesterday’s Miami Herald:

A jury Monday found a couple guilty of having sex on Bradenton Beach after only 15 minutes of deliberation.

The report, however, did not say how long a couple, in order to avoid violating the criminal code, must deliberate before having sex on Brandenton Beach.

(HT Lizzy Higgs, and with apologies to Lizzy’s love, for he – being a world-class wordsmith – also ridiculed the hilariously poor construction of the sentence quoted above.)
