"...zippered pants remain in circulation ..."
I thought that was the definition of not being in circulation.

I've seen several zipper related injuries in the er. They aren't pretty and judging from the guy's reactions they're pretty painful too. I won't mention how we fixed the problem but we started with a nice dose of I.V. Demerol. They didn't care so much after that.

Jeezely, n'cin' ... if they know they can get Demerol, now they'all ALL be doin' it!

Let them do experience that for say 13 hours, then they can whine.
