I am free to drown an hippogriff by submerging it in the spring of eternal youth

By 4 kybernetikos on November 08, 2007

But I am curious as to whether people think I'm free to do impossible things to impossible creatures by means that I don't have.

No, you're not. I bet it would fly away.

I'm not saying it'd be easy, just that I'm free to do it. I mean, no one's going to stop me right? There're no laws against it. I don't know a single person who would stand up for a hippogriff. even the RSPCA don't protect mythical creatures.

I'm not at all sure you can drown in the spring of eternal youth. The hippogriff would obviously get younger, or at least not older, whilst you held it under the water. If it drowned, how would it stay eternally youthful? I don't think you've thought this through at all. This is the kind of sloppy thinking that gives mythology a bad name, if you ask me.

Mind you, kyb isn't -- there's a law.

But I am, which is why we're having hippogriff veal on Saturday.
