I'll betcha you know a lot more about the U.S. than I know about Canada! <br /><br />Ann- A lot of these laws have languished on the books for years and years. They're no longer enforced (I hope) and I reckon the legislators are too busy coming up with new laws to worry about getting rid of some of the old ones.<br /><br />Shelley- Research, research, research ... one state at a time.<br /><br />Kittie- I think they're fun, too.

As always, thank you for your comme...Hi, y'all. As always, thank you for your comments. You guys rock.<br /><br />Manzie- See now, you've gone and taught me something. I never would have associated the song "Going to Kansas City" with stripping. (I'm so naive, I associate the song "The Stripper" with stripping!)Yes, you're right; that was James Arness, and I'm pretty sure he died a year or so ago. I saw bits and pieces of "Michael", but never sat and watched the whole thing, so I don't remember the ball of string in there. I'll have to keep an eye out for it next time. (Tie a piece of string around my finger to remind myself?) Take care.<br /><br />Beach Bum- My very favorite science teacher was my eleventh grade physics teacher. She was ageless and shapeless ... on purpose. She had a brilliant mind, and it's her fault I'm such a nerd, (okay, partly her fault) but honest to goodness, she would sometimes ask me for reassurance that her clothes weren't too "provocative." Trust me. They weren't. Long. Straight. Shapeless. To this day, I still have no idea how old she was, but she was probably younger than I am now. Good thing she didn't live in Kansas. <br /><br />Dianne- Is she a teacher, like you? Science? Better warn her about that permit!<br /><br />Arleen- Yeah, and after you visit the ball of string, I'll betcha you could make an appointment to go to the park and watch the grass grow.<br /><br />Barb- Kansas can keep their tornadoes. We have enough of them here in Georgia. And rednecks. I'm sure they'd be happy to shoot squirrels from a boat. I'm honored to be your Two Pan Tattler editor, ma'am. Glad to help. <br /><br />Cro- Sure, all of the U.S. is reasonably normal. It all depends on how high you set the bar. How about France? I'll betcha there are still some strange lois on the livres there, too ...<br /><br />Hilary- Oh dear, I sure hope there isn't a single piece that can be pulled from that ball of string to make the while thing unravel. When I was wrapping presents last week, one of my cats got hold of the center pull point of a big ball of silver ribbon ... and took off down the hall. I yelped, and she kept running, obviously having a grand old time. I finally had the good sense to step on the ribbon and stop her escapades, but not before she'd mad a huge mess of it. No point even trying to rewind it, so the whole heap is in a big bag now. I can just imagine what a mess that giant ball in Kansas would make! It'd cover half the state. Take care, and cheers back atcha.<br /><br />Anne- I reckon we can "ban" whatever we'd like, but that doesn't mean nature will comply. (I wouldn't mind banning tornadoes.) I have sent you an email, dear lady. Hope I can be of some help. (But I'm doubtful.)<br /><br />Hope y'all have a super weekend.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034142332858737641.post-24206642944059291832011-12-10T07:15:40.298-05:002011-12-10T07:15:40.298-05:00How can you ban fog?
