Weekend Humor

These are actually laws in my home state of Pennsylvania...I kid you not!

No more than two packages of beer at a time may be purchased, unless you are buying from an official "beer distributor" (Really? Ok!)

You may not catch a fish by any body part except the mouth. (I'll try and remember that...provided I ever go fishing.)

Motorized vehicles are not to be sold on Sundays. (Must be the reason why I bought my car on a Saturday!)

You may not catch a fish with your hands. (Can you?)

It is illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors. (If I ever see anyone doing that..I'll be sure to tell em!)

You may not sing in the bathtub. (HA! Try enforcing that!)

Fireworks stores may not sell fireworks to Pennsylvania residents.(You have to live in Deleware!)

Dynamite is not to be used to catch fish. (Huh?)

It is illegal to have over 16 women live in a house together because that constitutes a brothel. However up to 120 men can live together, without breaking the law. (Hmmmm...I think if I had ever had 16 women in anyplace I'd ever lived...I would have never told anyone.)

Though you do not need a fishing license to fish on your own land, but a hunting license is required to hunt on your own land. (Huh????)

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. (You have got to be kidding!)

A person is not eligible to become Governor if he/she has participated in a duel. (Well, that's good to know.)

Any motorist who sights a team of horses coming toward him must pull well off the road, cover his car with a blanket or canvas that blends with the countryside, and let the horses pass. If the horses appear skittish, the motorist must take his car apart, piece by piece, and hide it under the nearest bushes. (Will never happen!)

Ministers are forbidden from performing marriages when either the bride or groom is drunk. (Well......That's good to know.)

All liquor stores must be run by the state. (That's coming to an end soon.)

A special cleaning ordinance bans housewives from hiding dirt and dust under a rug in a dwelling. (Try enforcing that!)

It is contrary to Pennsylvania law to discharge a gun, cannon, revolver or other explosive weapon at a wedding. (I feel so much safer now!)

Have a great weekend everybody!
