More Crazy Laws #42 is this week’s Mystery Question…I know, I know…last week’s title said More Crazy Laws #42, but it should have read #41…it’s been a crazy two weeks!
And now the photo and verse. The photo is one of my roses…who would’ve thought in my old age that I’d be able to grow roses — I’ve been famous for my death thumb instead of a green thumb. In the past almost everything I planted died…within a week. And the verse is one of my many favorites!
Now for last week’s Crazy State Laws #41. Three true laws and one made-up one. Can you guess which one?
- Here you can’t throw knives at men in striped suits…I’m not sure about women… (KS)
- In a city in this state, women can’t eat raw onions after 6 p.m., so ladies, beware of putting an onion on your hamburger after six. (TX)
- Whatever you do in this state, make sure you don’t eat a frog who dies in a frog jumping contest–you might spend time in a cell. (You guessed it, CA)
- If you see Big Foot in this state, don’t try to capture him unless you want to risk jail time.
And the answer is…#4…congrats to all who guessed correctly.
Now for this week’s Crazy State Laws #42. Three true laws and one made-up one. Can you guess which one?
- This state has a city that deems it illegal for a woman to drive a motorized vehicle without a male in the vehicle with her.
- Here you better not walk down the street eating a raw onion.
- In Oklahoma, you can’t make a silly face at your dog, but in this state if you make any face at a dog, you can end up in the slammer.
- In this poultry capital of the world, it’s illegal to eat fried chicken with anything other than your fingers.
Okay, Super Sleuths, which one did I make up? Leave your answers in the comments and I’ll enter you in a June drawing for a book from my library!

# 3 Your rose is beautiful! Trust in God, for sure! DJ
Author
Thank you, DJ! I truly give God the credit for the rose…the last one I planted where this one is died…
#4 the chicken has it.
Author
Lol, Mary! We’ll see…
Beautiful picture. I’m going with #1.
Author
Thank you, Diana! We’ll see next week…I think your record is pretty good…but not sure about this week.
Your rose is gorgeous! I’m guessing number 3 because even an enthusiastic smile is “making a face,” so why would that be illegal?
Author
Thanks, Priscilla! Your logic makes sense…but I’m not sure logic has anything to do with our legislators…at least the ones who made these laws. lol
Pat, I also have a bad track record with growing things. I probably don’t pay enough attention. But, your rose is proof that even we who don’t have green thumbs can have what the Lord makes grow for us. I love that Bible verse.
Now for these well thought out laws.
#1. If this one flew back in the day, it sure wouldn’t now.
#2. If not a law, maybe it should be.
#3. How can you not “make a face” at anything?
#4. Now here’s a sensible law for a change.
I’m going with #1 as the one you made up. I can’t think of one woman I know who wouldn’t have been arrested if this one was real.
Author
As always your logic entertains me, Tim! 😉 We’ss see next week if it’s #1. And I agree that God is the one who saves my roses!
Your rose definitely passed with success, Pat. Beautiful! How many of you all bent over to sniff it? I did.
The Scripture is such a great promise for us. We always have a hiding place in Him.
Going with #3. If I still had a dog, she would be faithful and never tell if I made a face. Besides, she would think we were playing!
Author
Barbara, that rose has a wonderful smell, unlike a knockout rose. And I love the scripture, too. And we’ll see if it’s #3 next week.
I will choose #4
Pretty rose!
Author
Thanks, Paula! We’ll see next week if it’s #4.
I choose number 1.
Author
Hi Kathy! We’ll see if it’s #1 next week.
Beautiful rose! Love the verse! I’m so thankful God is my refuge!
#1
Author
Thanks, Mary G! We’ll see next week if it’s #1.
Beautiful rose and a wonderful verse!
1. I suppose if my wife and I went to Walmart in that city and she needed to use the motorized shopping cart, which I believe by definition qualifies as a vehicle, I would either have to sit on her lap or ride in the basket! I’ve seen some cases where that would no longer be a vehicle, but would be considered a pancake.
2. I don’t really care where you eat your raw onions just as long as you’re not in my face nor trying to get me to take a bite.
3. Pull out the Covid masks to hide your face from the dogs!
4. Is there any other way to eat fried chicken?
Once again, I agree with Tim. Men would have arisen in arms at an attempt to pass such a law. Back in my early years, men would prefer for the woman to drive to the store rather than driving or being drug along on a shopping trip. And very few wanted to be in the car with a woman driver!

Hi Edward! Glad you’re feeling better!! I guess great minds work alike–I love the way you and Tim puzzle out the questions…we’ll see next week if you’re right. 🙂
Such a beauty of a rose. I’m going with #3
Author
Thanks, Lynn! I have really enjoyed it. We’ll see next week if it’s #3.
Beautiful rose and verse. I like to read anything in Psalms. I am picking number three.
Author
I love the Psalms, Judy! So much comfort there. We’ll see next week if it’s #3.
#3
Author
Number three is getting popular, Mary Z! We’ll see next week.
#1, I hope, but… we shall find out next week! 🙂
Author
Lol! Love your answer, Barbie D!
Beautiful rose! I love growing things! My guess is #3.
Author
Hi Jody! I’ve always enjoyed growing things, just not very successful at it until lately. lol. We’ll see next week if it’s #3.
I’ll guess #2 this week.
Author
Hi Megan…not too many have chosen #2…we’ll see…
I am guessing #2 this week. I do love a good smelling and lovely rose.
Author
Another vote for #2, Gloria A! I love a good smelling rose, too…that’s why I shied away from more knock-out roses–they have absolutely zero smell!
I think #3 was made up. It’s just too…silly.
Author
It does sound silly, but don’t forget what we’re dealing with…
I’m going to say #3.
Beautiful rose! We can’t grow anything in our yard. Our house was built on a former sand and gravel pit.
Author
Number 3 is very popular, Gail…we’ll see. Oh, a gravel pit! Have you thought about peanuts??? 😉
LOL #4, I’ll go get me some chicken
Author
Love it, Natalya! We’ll see Tuesday if it’s #4.
#2
Author
We’ll see next Tuesday, Patricia!
