Well, I must say your offer for speeding tickets is tempting... but in the end I think it might just be cheaper to not speed... unless that was your
idea all along.
Anyways, I thought I heard somewhere that the phrase copper came from a foreign word "kapir" or maybe "capir" which meant man of the city. Of
course I hear so many things like that that it's hard to keep them all straight, especially what's true or not.
