Dumb Florida Laws
*****************
- A special law prohibits unmarried women from
parachuting
on Sunday or she shall risk arrest, fine, and/or
jailing.
- It is illegal to sing in a public place while
attired in
a swimsuit.
- Men may not be seen publicly in any kind of
strapless
gown. (I'd like to see this one enforced in South
Beach!)
- Big Pine Key:
* It is illegal to molest a Key deer. If caught one
will
be fined or will have to go to jail. (Again, good
thing
this one doesn't apply in South Beach!)
- Daytona Beach:
* The molestation of trash cans is banned.
- Sarasota:
* If you hit a pedestrian you are fined $78.00.
* You may not catch crabs. (Not good news for
hookers!)
- Tampa Bay:
* It is illegal to eat cottage cheese on Sunday after
6PM
- Pensacola:
* A women can be fined (only after death), for being
electrocuted in a bath-tub because of using self-
beautification utensils.

than us!
FLORIDA: Once is never enough! (I'm sure they didn't
intend
this one for the recent flurry of hurricanes!)
Palm Beach County: We put the "duh" in Florida.
