Excerpt from Flatlanders and Ridgerunners:Out-Riddling the JudgeBack in Prohibition my uncle made moonshine. His name was Moses Kenny and his whiskey--they called it &quote;White Mule&quote; was the best in the county. Well, the feds got after him and finally they  arrested him. Took him to a federal judge down in Philadelphia.Now, the judge liked a good time and thought he'd have a little fun with this hick from the mountains. When Uncle came into court, he said, &quote;are you the Moses who can make the sun dark?&quote;Moses looked at him and said slowly, &quote;Nope, your honor. But I am the Moses who can make the moon shine.&quote;The judge let him go.
