feds clamp down on hikers mooning passing trains

MOUNT WASHINGTON, N.H. -- Officials are cracking down on hikers who drop their pants to moon passengers on the Mount Washington cog railway.

"Mooning the cog" is a long tradition for hikers, especially those completing the Appalachian Trail, which passes over the highest point in the northeast.

But the practice offends some, and on several weekends this fall some undercover officers took a ride on the train and stopped it when hikers gave them the salute.


Eight hikers are being charged with a federal offense, since they were on National Forest land. They need to pay a fine or appear in the U.S. District Court in Concord to contest the charge.

Why is the Federal Government charging anyone with anything here?

Colorado passed a law making it illegal to pee on the side of the
road, law enforcement designated it a 10-100.
Makes you wonder what a 10-200 might be.

THIS is going entirely off the wall.......

and SICK.

Can the State of Colo. , in all it's majesty, explain just where exactly we're supposed to pee?

Maybe there will be free pee zones.


I saw a movie where only the military and the police had guns. It was called Schindler's List.
