Laying Down the Laws
Since there isn’t much in the daily fish wraps to make fun of “law-wise” today, the good folks at FARK.com saved my hide once again by finding these strange by true liquor laws. Thanks FARK! I’ve got you to thank for saving my job, my life and my virginity!
Here are my favorites…
2. Although the French wine, “Fat Bastard,” is now distributed in 22 states in the US. both Texas and Ohio have banned its sale within their borders.
Actually “fat bastards” in Texas and Ohio are, of course, still perfectly legal, overpopulating the cities and eating enough Mexican food to ruin the air quality requirements forever.
10. Don’t plan on running a “tab” in Iowa; it’s illegal.
But what if I’ve run a tab as “big” as Iowa?
19. The entire Encyclopedia Britannica is banned in Texas because it contains a recipe for making beer that can be used at home.
Big deal, it’s not like any of the kids in Texas schools can read.
23. State law of North Dakota prohibits serving beer and pretzels at the same time in any bar or restaurant.
Since President Bush has been in office, serving pretzels is a federal offense.
