Iowa Laws

Well, I'd like to start this blog by telling you another life lesson I have learned this week.

Hypothetically speaking, If I were a person who sang in the shower and happened to be washing my face at the same time, it may or my not be a good idea because face wash may or may not taste good. Remember this is all hypothetical.

But anyway, I have nothing to write about, and I'm tired. I don't want to write about anything right now, but guess what? I have to. So here are dumb Iowa laws and my responses.

 Laws:
  1. It is a violation of the law to sell or distribute drugs or narcotics without having first obtained the appropriate Iowa drug tax stamp.
  2. A man with a moustache may never kiss a woman in public.
  3. One-armed piano players must perform for free.
  4. Kisses may last for no more than five minutes.
  5. Tanning bed facilities must warn of the risk of getting a sunburn.
  6. A board was created to regulate among other things, hearing aids.
  7. Ministers must obtain a permit to carry their liquor across state lines.
  8. Doctors who treat a person with gonorrhea must report this to the local board of health and include the disease’s “probable origin”.
  9. All boxes used to pick hops must be exactly 36 inches long.
Ok, responses:
  1. I'm pretty sure it is a violation to sell drugs in general.
  2. I really hate moustaches, and kissing in public, so I'm going to have to approve of this one.
  3. Well, I don't think a one armed piano player would be very good so I don't think anyone would pay him for his efforts, so I disapprove.
  4. I think they should add "in public" 
  5. You are dumb if you don't know this. But for the people who are dumb enough to give themselves skin cancer may need this obvious information posted in their face.
  6. I don't really know what this means
  7. I'm wondering one, what is the penalty, and two, could they have somebody else carry their liquor across the border?
  8. This one is just quite funny.
  9. I'm not a farmer. I don't know the significance of this.
Taa Daaa! Done. I win.

  3. Public kisses are disgusting, but I don't understand why many of these laws are still active. Moustaches are really weird so I approve, but the gonorrhea thing is just gross.

  4. All I have to say is, the people who can kiss for up to 5 minutes should be greatful, because the man with the mustache cannot even kiss for .000001 seconds! Life would suck for him d:

  5. What if a woman had a mustache? Would that law still hold true to her? hmmmmmm....? It happens people. Women get lip hairs. Groade! I know. I would like to know how some of these laws came into play. Just ridiculous.

  6. Mustaches are weird for one. But what is even weirder is who thinks of this law and what is the purpose of it?

  7. Tan beds obviously will give you a sunburn and people should know this before they go in, and if you complain then that's your fault for not looking at the effects

  8. "Any hotel in the city limits must have a water bucket and a hitching post in front of the building." because we all like to ride our horses to the hotel

  9. "Horses are forbidden to eat fire hydrants." I have no smartalic comment for this one, its self explanatory. Thought you'd get a kick out of it

  10. Ok the mustache thing is just plain gross, but I don't know why it would be a law I mean I am glad it is, but I just don't understand why it's a law.

  11. Oh goodness, Shannons comment just made me laugh out loud to myself but yes I do believe most of these laws are, lets say, ridiculous. I also have to say that what you said about the shower singing and face wash is sadly true...clean and clear face wash isn't the best taste. In case you are wondering..

  12. I'm big into the whole Iowa Law thing, but I have not heard of any of these. Although I'm big into the real serious Iowa Laws that make my life bad.
