I hope you have a hundred reasons to celebrate in the coming months...but
remember these laws...absolutely true!
1. In San Francisco there's an ordinance banning picking up used confetti to throw again.
(Haven't they heard of ecology?)
2. New Hampshire law forbids you to tap your foot, not your head, or in any way
keep time to music in a tavern, restaurant or cafe.
3. Forbidden in Belt, Montana, are: The Tango, the Duck Wobble, the Angle Worm Wiggle and
the Kangaroo Glide. (So go ahead and do the Turkey Trot!)
4. Under Alabama law, the wearer of a false mustache who causes unseemly laughter in
church is liable to arrest. (What about the Terrible Toupee?)
5. San Francisco prohibits elephants from strolling down Market Street unless they are on
a leash. (Wonder if they can "trot"?)
6. It is criminal offense in Massachusetts to wear a costume while collecting a bad debt.
7. In Florida it is illegal to sing in a public place while attired in a swimsuit..and men
may not be seen publicly in any kind of strapless gown. (Mr. Blackwell will be the judge
of that..)
8. In Kentucky, by law, anyone who has been drinking is "sober" until he or she
"cannot hold onto the ground."
9. In Kentucky you will get arrested if found transporting an ice cream cone in your
pocket. (Wonder if that includes Popsicles...?)
So, my fellow CyberCelebrationists, try to have fun, even though quite a bit of it is
against the law!
