-
- If you were posting a letter in England and by accident put the stamp (with the picture of the Queen) up side-down, youd be committing an act of treason.
- In Arkansas, a man is legally allowed to beat his wife only once a month.
- In Florida it is forbidden for any woman to parachute on Sunday afternoons unless she is married.
- In France you could be put in prison for naming a pig Napoleon
- In Iowa, it is forbidden for any kiss to last more than 5 minutes.
- In Nova Scotia, Canada, youre not allowed to water your lawn when it is raining.
- In England, committing suicide is punishable by death.
- In Denmark one is not allowed to start a car if someone is under the vehicle.
- In Alabama it is against the law for a person to drive whilst blindfolded.
- In Israel it is illegal to pick your nose on a Saturday.
- In Saudi Arabia, it is forbidden for a woman to drive a car. (They must have the worlds safest roads then).
- In Singapore, if you are caught littering three times, youre made to clean the streets on Sundays wearing a banner that says, I am a litter bug. A picture of you is then put on the local news. (I like this law very much).
- In Indonesia you could be decapitated if found masturbating. (Mum was right then, you could go blind. Sorry I couldnt resist it.)
- In Korea, it is illegal to eat stray cats.(Thats why I always go for the neighbours pet.)
- In Bahrain, it is illegal for a male doctor to look at a womans genitals at an examination. How can he examine her then?, I hear you ask. Well, he can only look at her private bits in a mirror. (But dont mirrors show your reflection back to front?)
