To
The Inhabitants of Space in General
And H. C. in Particular
This Work is Dedicated
By a Humble Native of Flatland
In the Hope that
Even as he was Initiated into the Mysteries
Of Three Dimensions
Having been previously conversant
With Only Two
So the Citizens of that Celestial Region
May aspire yet higher and higher
To the Secrets of Four Five or even Six Dimensions
Thereby contributing
To the Enlargement of the Imagination
And the possible Development
Of that most rare and excellent Gift of Modesty
Among the Superior Races
Of Solid Humanity

# Finnegan's Wake

An Irish street ballad thought to have been written in the 1850s. It is the basis of James Joyce's novel Finnegans Wake.
An alternate choice for Thanam o'n Dhoul (Irish d'anam don Diabhal, "your soul to the devil") is Thunderin' Jaysus. Note that there are variants of many of the names and terms in the song.
    Tim Finnegan lived in Watling Street
    A gentleman Irish, mighty odd;
    He'd a beautiful brogue so rich and sweet
    And to rise in the world he carried a hod.
    Now Tim had a sort o' the tipplin' way
    With a love of the liquor poor Tim was born
    And to help him on with his work each day
    He'd a drop of the craythur ev'ry morn.
Chorus
    Whack fol the dah now dance to your partner
    Welt the flure, your trotters shake;
    Wasn't it the truth I told you
    Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake!
    One mornin' Tim was rather full
    His head felt heavy which made him shake,
    He fell from the ladder and broke his skull
    And they carried him home his corpse to wake.
    They wrapped him up in a nice clean sheet
    And laid him out across the bed,
    With a gallon of whiskey at his feet
    And a barrel of porter at his head.
    His friends assembled at the wake
    And Mrs. Finnegan called for lunch,
    First they brought in tea and cake
    Then pipes, tobacco and whiskey punch.
    Biddy O'Brien began to cry
    "Such a nice clean corpse, did you ever see?
    "Arrah, Tim, mavourneen, why did you die?"
    "Ah, shut your gob" said Paddy McGee!
    Then Maggy O'Connor took up the job
    "O Biddy," says she, "You're wrong, I'm sure":
    Biddy gave her a belt in the gob
    And left her sprawlin' on the floor.
    And then the war did soon engage
    'Twas woman to woman and man to man,
    Shillelagh law was all the rage
    And the row and the ruction soon began.
    Then Mickey Maloney ducked his head
    When a flagon of whiskey flew at him,
    It missed, and fallin' on the bed
    The liquor scattered over Tim.
    Tim revives! See how he rises!
    Timothy rising from the bed
    Sayin': "Whirl your liquor around like blazes!
    Thanam o'n Dhoul! D'ye think I'm dead?"

Florida v. Wells
No. 88-1835 Argued: Dec. 4, 1989. --- Decided: April 18, 1990
Syllabus
Following his arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol, respondent Wells gave the Florida Highway Patrol permission to open the trunk of his impounded car. An inventory search of the car turned up two marijuana cigarette butts in an ashtray and a locked suitcase in the trunk. The suitcase was opened, and a considerable amount of marijuana was discovered. After the state trial court denied Wells' motion to suppress the marijuana on the ground that it was seized in violation of the Fourth Amendment, he pleaded nolo contendere to a charge of possession of a controlled substance, but retained his right to appeal the denial of the motion to suppress. The intermediate appellate court held, inter alia, that the trial court erred in denying suppression of the marijuana found in the suitcase. The State Supreme Court affirmed, noting the absence of any Highway Patrol policy on the opening of closed containers found during inventory searches, and holding that Colorado v. Bertine, 479 U.S. 367, 107 S.Ct. 738, 93 L.Ed.2d 739, requires police to mandate either that all containers be opened during such searches, or that no containers be opened, leaving no room for discretion on the part of individual officers.
Held: Absent any Highway Patrol policy with respect to the opening of closed containers encountered during an inventory search, the instant search was insufficiently regulated to satisfy the Fourth Amendment. Requiring standardized criteria or established routine as to such openings prevents individual police officers from having so much latitude that inventory searches are turned into a ruse for a general rummaging in order to discover incriminating evidence. However, denying, as did the State Supreme Court, police officers all discretion is at odds with Bertine. While an "all or nothing" policy is permissible, one that allows a police officer sufficient latitude to determine whether a particular container should be opened in light of the nature of the search and characteristics of the container itself does not violate the Fourth Amendment. Pp. 3-5.
539 So.2d 464, (Fla.1989), affirmed.
