Watch your step!!!

This could be fun. Cite examples of why and where you should "watch your step."


In Salt lake City, it is illegal to carry an unwrapped Ukulele on the street!

"Mind The Gap" - YouTube

I couldn't find one with the "Stand Clear of The Closing Doors" bit. They must've had a problem with people stepping in the gap between the platform and the train...

I need a sign like that for my house. I keep getting letters from the city telling me to move my trucks and clean the junk out of my driveway.

How's a man supposed to make a living if he can't park a 2-3 trucks in his driveway and have old appliances out for sale on the lawn.

** Illegal to eat a sundae on Sunday **

Nevada has a Law that it is against the law for a man to transport an unmarried women in to the State. Last I knew it was still on the books. It was because of kind of legal prostitution in Nevada, later legal in certain Counties. in the 1800-today.

It is illegal to display a hypnotized person in a store window in Everett (Washington).

In Wilbur (Washington), it is against the law to ride an ugly horse.

In Spokane, it is against the law to buy a television on Sunday.

In Seattle, it is against the law to carry a concealed weapon that is over six feet in length.

A badly worded law in Washington states that when two trains come to a crossing, neither shall go until the other has passed.
