Thank you to More Crazy Laws #55 is this week’s Mystery Question. Double Nickles. How many of you remember when that was the national speed limit?
This week’s post is a reminder not to only vote, but to pray for whoever is elected — something we should be doing for every elected official, judge, even dog catcher! Probably close to half the voters will not get the person they voted for in the election. Just remember, no matter who the president is, God is still in control.
Also remember that if you don’t vote, you shouldn’t complain about the person in office… 😉
One more thing…today Deadly Revenge releases!!! More about that at the end of the post…
Now for last week’s Mystery Question about crazy state laws. Three laws are on the books somewhere and I made up one of them. Your job is to figure out which one I made up…
- Want to break the law here? Putting your kid’s bathroom more than 200 feet from their bedroom will do it. (PA)
- Here it’s illegal to hunt big game if it’s swimming. (GA)
- If you’re over 14, don’t play on the playground here or you might be arrested. (KS)
- In this state if you own a black cat you must put a bell on its collar on Halloween.
And the answer is…#4. I don’t have to put a bell on my kitty–I don’t let him out on Halloween!
Now for this week’s Mystery Question about crazy state laws. Three laws are on the books somewhere and I made up one of them. Your job is to figure out which one I made up…
- It’s illegal to drive a car without a steering wheel here.
- You can’t take a photo of your hunting trophy using a flash camera in this state.
- Have a dog that needs to relieve himself? Don’t let him do it in a full parking lot.
- Here you must feed the parking meter if you tie an elephant, goat or alligator to it.
Okay Super Sleuths, which one did I make up? Leave your answers in the comments, and I’ll enter you in a November drawing for a $10 gift card!

#4 – it seems like a good idea to feed the meter.
Author
Lol, Mary. I would feed it…we’ll see.
Congratulations on the new release! I’m going with #3.
Author
Thank you, Diana! We’ll see next week if it’s #3.
#4 Not sure where the elephant would come from in the U. S.
Author
I know…we’ll see.
I think you made up number 1 because how could that even be possible? Congrats on the release of Deadly Revenge; I look forward to reading it!

I don’t know, Priscilla, but you know legislatures…
Congratulations on your book release, Pat! I’m ready to start reading.
I do remember the double nickel speed limit. I remember various states enforced it differently.
Congratulations Joy for winning the drawing.
The laws:
#1. There are some driverless cars without steering wheels, so maybe.
#2. Can’t use a flash to photograph a hunting trophy? That is dumb.
#3. Dogs and parking lots. This one makes sense. Amazing.
#4. You park it by a parking meter, you pay the fee. Yup.
I think you made up #2. How could this possibly be enforced? But then we’re talking about legislators.
Author
Thank you, Tim! And great logic. We’ll see if it’s #2 next week…
