heres something funny for ya

Look your state up :lol


California is by far the funniest :rofl
Not to mention Florida's elephant law: If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle. (lions and tigers and bear, oh wait...)

Idaho: It's safe to make love while parked in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Police officers aren't allowed to walk up and knock on the window. Any suspicious officer who thinks that sex is taking place must drive up from behind, honk his horn three times and wait approximately two minutes before getting out of his car to investigate

Kentucky: By law, anyone who has been drinking is "sober" until he or she"cannot hold onto the ground."
In Kentucky, "No female shall appear in a bathing suit on any highway within this state unless she be escorted by at least two officers or unless she be armed with a club." (in a bikini with two cops. mmmm)

An amendment to the above legislation: "The provisions of this statuate shall not apply to females weighing less than 90 pounds nor exceeding 200 pounds, nor shall it apply to female horses." (toejam)

Mine/Massachusetts: Mourners at a wake may not eat more than three sandwiches.

Snoring is prohibited unless all bedroom windows are closed and securely locked. (officers, there's a rumble in the Bronx)

An old ordinance declares goatees illegal unless you first pay a special license fee for the privilege of wearing one in public. (must be licensed and tagged)

In Salem, even married couples are forbidden from sleeping in the nude in rented rooms. (it's Salem. Where would you go anyway?)

In Boston it is illegal to take a bath unless one has been ordered by a physician to do so.

In 1659, the State outlawed Christmas. (somewhere Santa is making it up to Mrs. Claus)

WE OUTLAWED CHRISTMAS??!!! :rofl

add this to the list of good ones

In Pennsylvania, "any motorist driving along a country road at night must stop every mile and send up a rocket signal, wait 10 minutes for the road to be cleared of livestock, and continue."

Well, our world famous rhythm here in NH seems to have prompted this one:

New Hampshire law forbids you to tap your feet, nod your head, or in any way keep time to the music in a tavern, restaurant, or cafe

I tried to tell my wife I couldn't dance with her because of this law, and then she reminded me that at no time am I ever in time with the music......

In Los Angeles, a man is legally entitled to beat his wife with a leather belt or strap, but the belt can't be wider than 2 inches, unless he has his wife's consent to beat her with a wider strap.

It is illegal to drive more than two thousand sheep down Hollywood Blvd. at one time.

And people say we're too liberal, progressive and out of touch with the heart and desires of the rest of the nation.  :devil
