Legislators go to work every day and just to have something to do, they create more and more laws. There are so many laws on the books, it is literally impossible for us to know them all. And I would be willing to bet
that just about all of us have broken a law a time or two.
It wouldn't be because we're all criminals. It's because there are laws that we have no idea are even there. The best laws are the ones that come from some weird activation or an era we no longer understand.
In Indiana, liquor stores are not allowed to sell milk. I'm not sure why when White Russians are a great drink that is made with milk. But, they might have outlawed milk to keep all the infants from hanging around.
In Ohio, it's illegal to get a fish drunk. Now, that has to be one of those laws that was made because of one idiot who thought it would be cool to get a fish drunk. I mean, I can't imagine it becoming such an epidemic that everyone was doing it and the fish were developing major family issues.
In Pennsylvania, beer can't be sold in quantities less than a case. Good news for the liquor stores. That's bad news for anyone who just wants a six pack. In other words, it's illegal to be a lightweight.
In Maryland, the western counties prohibit the sale of beer on Sundays. If you want to drink a few beers while watching football, you have to stock up the night before. Of course, you can always drive across the state line into West Virginia to buy some beer if you drink your stock. There are even signs welcoming all Marylanders and thanking the governor of Maryland for helping the economy in West Virginia on Sunday when half of Maryland drives over there.
In Florida, men may not be seen in public in a strapless gown. I included this law because I'm thinking the lawmakers were drinking the day they made it. But, it begs the question. What was happening in Florida that was so important that the lawmakers left the issue wide open for men to be seen in public in regular gowns?
