    I was bored, and I found this website

    www.dumblaws.com

    This site has dumb laws from various countries around the world, so I figured I'd share some of my State's dumber laws.

    This is a law for Allentown, PA

    This one's Connellsville, PA

    Danville, PA

    There's a few more, but they weren't nearly as ridiculous as these ones.

    Mostly it's laws which made sense in ancient times and which were never updated. I highly doubt any of these would ever be used. Except for those in DK of course, we still live by many of those. :)

    That's sort of the principle this site is built on, well that and that no person should ever have to buy a game without having demo'ed it first. But since there are no demos available we'll just have to make due with the full game and then buy if we like a game.

    I view it as more of a "Try it before you buy it!" deal.

    Sounds better that way.
