thanks to a good friend who bought me a book full of these
In Nebraska, it is illegal for a mother to give her daughter a perm without a state licence
In Alaska it is illegal to feed alcoholic beverages to a moose
In Montana it is illegal to have a sheep in the cab of a truck without a chaperone
In Iowa a man with a moustache is forbidden to kiss any woman in public
For some reason these stood out for me...
any useless facts coming back at me?

Dont you mean Aberdeen! Correct - and in Wales a chaperone is only required if the sheep and the driver havent been formally introduced.... |
