    Anybody who tries the "The giant pink iguana with a pringle's can did it"
    defense had better make damned sure they can prove in a court of law that
    there was indeed a giant pink iguana. And at that point, you may have to
    explain why you knowingly provided access to allow the commission of a
    crime - "aiding and abetting" isn't someplace you want to be......
