Originally it was a bride's property beyond her dowry. From the original Greek to Latin, the meaning was beyond dowry.

Now it means you're either a hoarder or busted for a crack pipe.

Getting caught with paraphernalia will cost you a hundred bucks.

The law is so broad here you could be arrested for having a bucket. No joke. They throw the book at you here, if you ever get to court. The dockets are years behind.

Meanwhile in other places you have paraphenalia they want to give you a check.
