Here is the link to my latest book:
"The Wacky World of Laws"
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0578016125?ie=UTF8&tag=onthisdateinn-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0578016125
“The Wacky World of Laws” is a compilation of U.S. and international and
laws and court cases that are decidedly out of the ordinary.
Did you know that in Boise, Idaho fishing from a camel or giraffe’s back
is illegal, that in Malibu, California laughing out loud in a movie
theater could be considered disturbing the peace, and in Massachusetts
tomatoes are not allowed in clam chowder? These are among the many
laughable laws and wacky court cases detailed in this humorous new book
written by Phil Konstantin and Jeff Isaac, AKA “The Lawyer in Blue
Jeans.”
“With the current legal landscape dominated by a glut of hard and
downright depressing news, Americans are sorely in need of a quick
chuckle on the ‘softer side of the law,’” notes author Jeff Isaac. “With
the United States churning out upwards of 500,000 new laws each year and
2 million regulations annually, this book is written for those who want
a good laugh at the expense of the legal system and who relish being the
hit of water cooler conversation.”
JUST A FEW OF THE WACKY LAWS:
*
In Portland, Oregon people may not whistle underwater
*
In Nebraska, if a child burps during church, his parent may be
arrested
*
In Norco, California it is not permissible to carry a fish into a
bar
*
In Wyoming you may not take a picture of a rabbit from January to
April without an official permit
*
In Los Angeles, California it's illegal for a man to beat his wife
with a strap wider than 2 inches without her consent
*
In Nebraska doughnut holes may not be sold
*
In Texas, when two trains meet each other at a railroad crossing
each shall come to a full stop, and neither shall proceed until the
other has gone
*
In West Virginia no children may attend school with their breath
smelling of "wild onions"
*
In California it is forbidden to spit on the ground within 5 feet
of another person
*
In New Jersey it is illegal to slurp soup
*
In Los Angeles it is against the law to complain through the mail
that a hotel has cockroaches, even if it is true
*
In Ventura, California it is illegal to make "ugly faces" at dogs
that are found "freely roaming the community"
*
In Oregon drivers must yield to pedestrians who are standing on
the sidewalk
