And as for Texas:

Texas Crazy Laws:
It is illegal to take more than three sips of beer at a time while standing.

A recently passed anticrime law requires criminals to give their victims 24 hours notice, either orally or in writing, and to explain the nature of the crime to be committed.

The entire Encyclopedia Britannica is banned in Texas because it contains a formula for making beer at home.

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.

It is illegal to drive without windshield wipers. You don't need a windshield, but you must have the wipers.

You can be legally married by publically introducing a person as your husband or wife 3 times.

A city ordinance states that a person cannot go barefoot without first obtaining a special five-dollar permit.

It is illegal for one to shoot a buffalo from the second story of a hotel.

It is illegal to milk another person's cow.

I always wonder how many of those "wacky laws" are made up by people and circulated on the net! :lol:

And Amanda...Chase had better not catch you milking his cow!

As of today i've written Texas as one of my 'must see before i'm too old' places in my little book of travel ideas.

I'm wondering how much hassle it would be to move to the states from here? :afro:

and would I have to buy a gun? :gun:

I agree...
I was talking w/ the police chief last night about hunting and how he said that his job is easy because everyone has guns... :lol:

The judge of the county(a little lady) just bought an over-under shotgun for this season's hunting. :lmao:

I have about 5 rifles and one pistol... as soon as I'm 21 I'm going to get a license to carry. :mrgreen:
