I read this, don't know if it's true, that in the UK the sentence used to be "hang by the neck" but then they cut the rope before a guy died. He argued that the sentence was to hang by the neck, and the sentence was fulfilled. The judge agreed and from then on it was "hang by the neck till dead". Might be totally made up but I want it to be true

As an American living abroad I can honestly say I don't miss being required to drive everywhere. Haven't owned a car in six years and there's like 2 times a year I need a car so I just rent one. Way cheaper that way.
