Hilarious Laws

Things in our world seem so serious these days. I just needed some relief and could not pass up the opportunity to post some of these hilariously DUMB laws.

In Alabama it is illegal to wear a fake moustache in Church that causes laughter. You may also not flick boogers in the wind, not carry an ice cream cone in your back pocket. You CAN drive the wrong way on a one way street as long as you attach a lantern to the front of your automobile.

If you want to practice voodoo in Louisiana you must do it outside of city limits. While driving to the area outside city limits to cast your spells you can let your wife drive, but you must walk in front of her carrying a flag.

Please do not plan to hunt whales in Kansas as it is against the law.

It’s also illegal to hunt whales in Ohio, but only on Sundays. You also may not fish while intoxicated. Installation and use of slot machines in outhouses is also permitted….DARN!

It’s a No-No to push a moose from a moving airplane in Alaska.

Sleepy? Don’t get caught sleeping on a refrigerator in Pittsburgh, Pa. It is against the law. A special cleaning ordinance was also passed banning homemakers from sweeping any dirt under the rug in a dwelling. Wives must send a note with their husbands enabling them to purchase alcohol and beware…singing in a bathtub is illegal.

If you go to Texas and decide to have a beer make sure you are sitting. It is illegal to take more than 3 sips of beer while standing. It is also illegal to release any obnoxious odors in an elevator.

If you need a blue light bulb you will have to travel to another state other than Arkansas. You will also need to keep your alligator somewhere other than the bathtub since it is illegal to keep them there. Make sure your dogs are muzzled if you live in Little Rock because they are not allowed to bark after 6 p.m.

You may not be able to drink and fish in Ohio, but there is no law against it in Idaho….you just can’t fish from a camels back!!

In Massachusetts you may NOT give beer to hospital patients. You also may not allow a guerilla to ride in the back seat of any vehicle. Taxi drivers are not allowed to make love in the front seat of their taxis while during their shift….Aw…where’s the ACLU on that one??

I love REDBOX!!!

Just because you tighten your budget belt does not mean that you have to go without all forms of entertainment. I love renting and watching movies. Nothing helps pass time quicker while ironing two mountains of clothes than to get lost in a movie while performing that monotonous task. If you have laundry piles like I do, you could easily understand why it would take several movies finish the job. Movie rentals at Blockbuster run around $4.99 a movie, but I have found a very inexpensive alternative….REDBOX!!

Redbox is basically a DVD vending machine. I never knew they existed until this past week and I have to say they are just divine little inventions. They are mainly located at various convenience stores and grocery stores….some inside and some are outside. So they get their first “star” for convenience. Another huge convenience is that you can rent a movie from one Redbox and return it to any other Redbox that may be convenient to you. This is great if you are traveling because you can literally return them to a Redbox in a different town.

What really puts them high on my list is that movies rentals are only $1 plus tax. They must be returned by 9 p.m. the following night or you get charged $1 late fee for each late day. Even if you rented two movies and had a late fee it would still be cheaper than one movie rental from Blockbuster. You just can’t beat that price no matter what your budget situation may be.

Don’t misunderstand and think that these are older releases either. Each box is stocked with new releases and get more new releases each Tuesday. They are also stocked with a variety of genres including children’s movies, action, drama, comedy and horror. You are guaranteed to find something that would suit anyone in your family. If there is a movie that you want to make sure you get you can also reserve it online and choose the location to pick it up. How awesome is that??

Be sure to check out www.redbox.com. It will take you through step-by-step on setting up your free account so that you can begin to enjoy. You can locate the Redbox rental locations in your town and see what is available at each. You can also get free rentals.

Let me know what you think of this new phenomena….I’m loving it!!
