Wednesday's WakkyFakts

Welcome to Wednesday’s WakkyFakts (unconventional
spelling deliberate), inspired at least in part by Storm Novello’s DIDYANOSE in Dandi Daley Mackall’s <<Blog On>> series.

This week's WakkyFakts come from Loony Laws and Silly Statutes, by Sheryl Lindsell-Roberts, but re-written in my own words. The parts in brackets, however, are 100% mine, and were
not taken from the book.

Marblehead, Massachusetts prohibits its citizens from crossing the street on Sunday unless it is absolutely necessary.
[Does going to church count as necessary?

Also in Massachusetts, a man may not shave his whiskers while driving.
[But is he allowed to shave his head, or another man’s whiskers?]

It’s against Canadian law to board a plane that is in flight.
[I think it would also be somewhat difficult!]

Prompt Of The Day/Alive

Every day, I will post a prompt, usually one word, but sometimes a phrase or a sentence.

Today’s prompt is alive.

Write a post, any kind, any length, using this prompt, and then put a link in the comments.

All I ask is that you keep it family friendly.

A Decision About My Collections

I used to add at least one item to at least one collection
(some items go into more than one collection!) every day.
I've decided to go back to doing this, but I have a spicy
feeling that I will often add to several collections!
