Some of those are really silly. I have yet to see an alligator roaming the streets of michigan either.

The second one doesn't seem like it could be true to me...

As for the 50 cent thing.. I think its you can't pay for anything OVER 50 cents with just pennies, and who would? Its silly!
When I was a cashier I once had a child pay for a $64 purchase in quarters though.. I was very very angry but at the time didn't know I could say no... My boss told me later not to let that happen again....



Did you know in Oregan its illegal to pump your own gas? Very odd. I loved driving through there on my roadtrip to Cali though. Hahaha didn't even have to tip the guy, cause its law!!! Awesome.

- Tennessee prohibits riders from lassoing fish.
That's too bad, as it would be the only way I'd be interested in fishing! :)

These arent really laws, more like funny facts..hahaa


All I need to know in life I learned from my horse?
When in doubt, run far, far away.
You can never have too many treats.
Passing gas in public is nothing to be ashamed of.
New shoes are an absolute necessity every 6 weeks.
Ignore cues. They're just a prompt to do more work.
Everyone loves a good, wet, slobbery kiss.
Never run when you can jog. Never jog when you can walk. And never walk when you can stand still.
Heaven is eating at least 10 hours a day... and then sleeping the rest.
Eat plenty of roughage.
Great legs and a nice rear will get you anywhere. Big, brown eyes help too.
When you want your way, stomp hard on the nearest foot.
In times of crisis, take a poop.
Act dumb when faced with a task you don't want to do.
Follow the herd. That way, you can't be singled out to take the blame.
A swift kick in the butt will get anyone's attention.
Love those who love you back, especially if they have something good to eat.
