Wow...The only one that makes since for Florida...is the door opening outwards...it would be for wheelcahir access, I guess. Aren't we strange people?!!
I hope you are feeling better!
Those are funny! I'm gonna go to that website and check out NC's dumb laws! It should be interesting!! Hope you feel better soon!
I'm going to jail. I own 12. I'm giving away dildo's! anybody want one????
I live in Florida, and I'm really gonna miss my husband when he goes to prison for breaking the Fart Law.
I meant sense not since...wow!
Thanks for those, I was planning on moving to Texas but I couldn't bear to part with my collection.
I hope you are feeling better!
WOW!!! I am proud to be a Texan. But I swear, Amy, if I get one of your toys for Christmas, I will hurt you.
And I am marking Florida off my "have to live there" list. Here in Texas I can park my elephant for free.
You are so funny....You are now my best friend! All my future grand daughters...Rhonda with an H!!!
I've never heard of that law in Wisconsin, but I imagine the Dairy Industry got the legislature to pass it. No cheese on your apple pie? Outrageous!! Thanks for making me laugh!!!
Thank you for the laugh (s). Plural. :)
Okay, why didn't somebody tell me this five decades ago? I'd have moved to Oregon where drying dishes is against the law. I always suspected it should be.
These "laws" just go to show you that sometimes politicians pass laws just to be doing something. And maybe just to see if anyone is paying attention.
Really, no ice cream cones in pockes? Oh, JUST on sunday. Whew!
And I totally want to live in Texas. At least I know those who would break the law would have to obey the law and give me notice. At least then I could put it on the calender and it wouldn't be such a time disrupter.
Great post, can't imagine what it would have been like if you were feeling 100%
