Stupid and very funny American laws - Benn - 05-31-2008
People! have you heard that in an American state (sorry forgot which one) “cats are prohibited to appear on a bridge after 9 PM, if they don’t have a backlight”. Sure… the cat first ensures that the backlight is put on, and then it will go on the bridge to have a stroll. :-) There are a lot of such examples, do you know any?
