good to know

During orientation, our administrators conscientiously informed us of these important points from the British legal system:

1. Driving:  If you're an American taking your driver's license test, and you walk to the wrong side of the car to get in the driver's seat, you automatically fail.

2.  Do's & don't's

It is illegal to:
-- die in the houses of Parliament
-- place postage stamps with images of the king or queen upside down

However, apparently it IS legal to murder a Scotsman within the ancient walls of the city of York -- provided he's carrying a bow and arrow.
