Cliff notes are what people use to figure out what hard-to-understand things mean. For example, lots of people use cliff notes to study for tests in English Literature classes on the books they were required to read.

Yeah I think the word I was actually looking for was footnote, but I easily get confused late at night.

What are you talking about? You obviously haven't had much experience with law enforcement officials. I would have thought you would, being a self labeled toker and everything. But if not, it's not like your missing anything.

And here, what court do you mean? I was just thrown in prison, no fancy trial.

Is there even a place in Cantr that conducts any sort of trials? I greatly doubt it.

EDIT: And it was more of a militia than a town guard.

Damn straight.

I know of at least two places that have fair trials, one even has trial by you peers.

The topic originally mentioned Thomas (In the very first post), so therefore, it isn't really off topic to be talking about Thomas. Or should I say, commenting about how Thomas is relevant by commenting to Anthony how relevant Thomas is opposed to not being relevant, in response to my comment commenting your comment about Thomas.
