Barely
Legal 
We all know that
there are leftover laws on the books in many states, dating back to the
colonies, that aren't enforced now, but you know, one day they just might
be! So don't try these, because they could get you some jail time:
West Virginia: it's
illegal for men to have sex with an animal over 40 pounds (but what about
the women?)
In Detroit, you
better not let a cop catch you sleeping in a bathtub.
Louisiana? Better
ditch that spray painted shopping cart you've got hiding in your basement.
Or stash it on the front lawn (it's only illegal in your basement).
Alabama: it is illegal
to stab yourself to gain someone's pity.
Alaska: it's illegal
to whisper in someone's ear while they're hunting moose.
California: (San
Francisco) it is illegal for car wash attendees to use old pairs of underwear
to wash or dry vehicles. (and thank God! imagine trying to explain skid
marks on your windshield...)
Colorado: Barbers
may not give massages to nude customers unless for instructional purposes
(Barbers get nude customers? I knew I was in the wrong line of work!)
Connecticut: any
dogs with tatoos must be reported to police.
Delaware: It is
illegal to get married on a dare (now you know why they invented Las Vegas)
Florida: it is
illegal to fish while driving across a bridge (not to mention extremely
difficult!)
Illinois: it is
illegal for barbers to use their fingers to apply shaving cream to a customers
face (but apparently not to touch their nekkid bodies. ahhh, colorado
is looking better all the time...)
Indiana: it is
illegal to sell your organs to cover your travel expenses (nope, for that
you need a real job. Of course, you can still sell organs to cover your
recreational expenses...)
Kentucky: all nude
people in your house must be registered. (is that before or after they
take a shower?)
Maine: It is illegal
to sell a car on Sunday, unless it comes equipped with plumbing (ahh,
we can dream, can't we?)
Mississippi: it
is illegal to attempt to stop someone from walking down the sidewalk by
parking a motorhome in their path (what they fail to realize is, that
motorhome was blown there from Alabama by a twister)
Nebraska: barbers
may not eat onions while working (it would shut up the fitful kids, that's
for sure)
North Carolina:
you can be fined for singing out of tune for more than 90 seconds (uh
oh...)
South Carolina:
You can be fined for not denouncing "the evils of intemperance" on the
fourth friday of every October (it's coming up folks, better get denouncing...)
Tennessee: it is
illegal to have more than five inoperable vehicles on your front lawn
(again, in the category of "why don't they have this in Alabama?")
Texas: any artificially
constructed underwater barrier reefs must come with an instruction booklet.
(well, the fish do need to know what to do with it...)
Vermont: it is illegal
to paint landscapes while the United States is at war (yep, cause you
never know if somebody's gonna blow up a part of it!)
Washington: Between
April 1st and September 30th, it is legal to capture and castrate any
horse or donkey that you find roaming around on your property (April Fo..?!)
Wisconsin: It is
illegal to use a laser pointer to start a riot (dag nabbit!)
South Dakota: It
is illegal to try to convince a pacifist to renounce his beliefs by threatening
to arm wrestle him. .
