There's a moose loose...
In Fairbanks, Alaska it is illegal for a moose to walk on the side walk. This dates back to the early days if the town when the owner of the bar had a pet moose that he used to get drunk. The moose would then stumble around the town drunk. The only way the law makers could prevent this from happining was to create the law so the moose could not cross the sidewalk and get into the bar.
The butter lobby.
In Quebec, Canada, an old law states that margarine must be a different colour from butter. This law is the result of Quebec dairy lobbyists' pressure to ''protect'' their dairy business. They claimed margarine was beginning to resemble butter, as to be mistaken for real butter. Make margarine unattractive, and consumers would stick to butter. The Quebec government caved in, and tried to impose a dark vermilion-coloured margarine, which was disgusting. The colour, finally, at the other extreme, is a pallid almost-white-colourless margarine.

That was cool DMP. I wouldn't mind reading more of those laws of yours. Eastcoast stuff would be good...

   

DMP, where did you get that book? I remember readind about a law from some prairie town where it's illegal to eat Ice Cream in public, and that the law was still on the books and could be inforced. Could you imagine walking down the street eating your Rocky Road cone and the cops scream to a stop, jump out of the car and yell at ya, " Put down the cone sir and just back away with your hands up!!!" The law came in around 1900. It might be in that book of yours DMP
