I went to a restaurant that serves "breakfast at any time". So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.

State Laws

Sub Category: Dumb State Laws


Alabama

State code allows only 5 minutes for one to vote. Source: Section 17-9-13 of Alabama Code Link


Arkansas drive-ins aren't very convenient thanks to this law... No person shall drive a motor vehicle onto the premises of a drive-in restaurant and leave the premises without parking such motor vehicle, unless there is no unoccupied parking space available on the premises. Source: Code 1961,

Sec. 18-54. Sounding of horns at sandwich shops. No person shall sound the horn on a vehicle at any place where cold drinks or sandwiches are served after 9:00 p.m.

China

According to a law in China, you must be intelligent to go to college. Guess the guy who wrote this did NOT go to college.

That would be the country of China, NOT the state of China.

Now back to your friendly states laws.

Colorado

Colorado Water laws prohibit the use of rain barrels or any methods to catch rain for use. They claim the rain has already been legally allocated to the state and individual may not capture and use water to which he/she does not have a right. New Laws passed in June 2009 eradicate this law.

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


WELCOME TO THE WEEKEND!!! penguin


Although, my life is next to miserable now that the rain has all ended and Summer is here in earnest. razz


Anything over 75 is exceeding my threshold for cool comfort. Actually it's more like 70 degrees. snicker


It's going to hit 70 degrees in the morning at 7:00 o'clock, so I am planning on being at the creek then, or shortly afterward, for a short excursion with Baby for arrowhead hunting. lab


I'm hoping maybe now I can get to the areas that were under water last week. happydance


It'll be hot. There'll be snakes, mosquitoes, and ticks. eek


As long as I don't get one of those nasty little chiggers like the one I got on my neck last week, I'll be ok. yes


A tick will crawl around and eventually stop and bite, and start trying to eat his way through your skin, but a chigger will bite here, and then run over there and bite you, and then run over somewhere else and bite you, and everyone of those bites itches like mad for about 3 weeks or longer. shocked


I'm off on a trip now. I've got a short drive over to Snoring Lane in SlumberLand.


Have a happy day everyone.

Super Saturday ya'll puppy

Hubby and I woke up late so it was HOT when we went out to walk. Decided to walk the neighborhood in spite of the hills because it has lots more shade. We didn't push. Just tried to keep a steady pace and walked from shade to shade.

Boys are staying an extra day. I don't know why and I'm not surprised. We'll be doing some family game time later.

Joe, there really are some interesting laws on the books. Chiggers are the devil. luck

Ana, have a wonderful day!

Gail, coffee sounds wonderful.

Space, hope your day is fantastic.

Nan, if you have cool, the dogs and I are coming up.

Haroula, wave

Darlene, hope the foot you find is fun. wave

Hello everybody. yay

I was at the creek this morning at 7:00. By 7:45 I was soaked from the heat. I wanted to see how far the water had dropped before I went very far, so I started on the bottom end of the high side, which was the closest to where I parked. The water had dropped way way down, which excited me, and in my infinite wisdom I decided I'd go up stream, one sandbar at a time, searching as I go, instead of walking to the upper end, and searching on the way down. That meant that by the time I got to the upper end, I was already frazzled, and fried. This wouldn't have been as much of a problem if I had stuck to my pland to only search the areas that were easy to get to, but do you think that's what happened? shame

I just kept thinking about the areas that I can search, now that the water has gone down, and after all, I am nothing if not a thoroughly modern example of a perfect lack of self control. slapforehead

I search one sand bar, found nothing, another sand bar, nothing, another sand bar, another one, another one, another one and nothing. Now I'm already 2 search areas past where I was going to quit. Now I went on up 3 more search areas up stream. Still nothing. The next sand bar is where I found the last little half inch point last week. There was nothing there either. rolleyes

I trekked on upward to the next sand bar which is where I found two points two weeks ago, and where I found this beauty. penguin

To show you how much the stars have to be in alignment in order to find these things, I had searched that area a couple of more times since I found the other two points, and must have walked right over this one without seeing it. shocked


After finding that one I didn't stop. I'm a glutton. I kept going all the way to the upper most spot that I go to. I didn't find anything else, and then I had to trek all the way back down to where I parked the car, at my old place. At least I had Gatorade waiting. blush

THEN, I went across the road to the low end. I parked at the neighbor's, got out and walked down the hill to the lowest point that I search, and I saw right away that it was still mostly under water. I walked up to the next area. It was under water still. Walked up to the upper end of that side, and was able to search there, but didn't find anything there either. frown


I crawled back up the hill to my truck, with Baby's encouragement. She was tired too. I was back home by 10:45. grin


Other than finding that one point, the highlight of my day was a very long nap I took after eating lunch. thumbsup


Now I think maybe one more trip is in store about next Wednesday, and those last areas should be out of the water. happydance


The mosquitoes were out in abundance. I did not get any ticks or chiggers, and I did not see one snake. woot


How was your day?
