Resolved Question: Not religious, dumb/funny laws in America?

I am American and proud of it. So, I am not anti-America. It's just funny. New York: 1. It is against the law to throw a ball at someone’s head for fun. 2. Slippers are not to be worn after 10:00 PM.' 3. The penalty for jumping off a building is death. hahahaha duh! California: 1. No vehicle without a driver may exceed 60 miles per hour. 2. Nobody is allowed to ride a bicycle in a swimming pool. 3. Sunshine is guaranteed to the masses. Maryland: 1. It’s illegal to take a lion to the movies. 2. Oral sex can not be given or received anywhere. Florida: 1. It is illegal to sell your children. 2. Having sexual relations with a porcupine is illegal. 3. It is considered an offense to shower naked. 4. You may not fart in a public place after 6 P. North Carolina: 1. It’s against the law to sing off key. 2. If a man and a woman who aren’t married go to a hotel/motel and register themselves as married then, according to state law, they are legally married. Utah: 1. It is illegal not to drink milk. Virginia: 1. You may not engage in business on Sundays, with the exception of almost every industry. 2. It is illegal to tickle women. Texas: 1. It is illegal to sell one's eye. 2. It is illegal to take more than three sips of beer at a time while standing. It makes you wonder what were people doing to make this a law? Not all of them are enforced. http://www.dumblaws.com/

Resolved Question: How to demand a cop for sex offense?

My girlfriend(17 at the time) was taken advantage of a police officer(33 at the time/married to my girlfriend cousin) 61/2 years ago in Texas. The policeman took her to a local motel room during High School hours ,and gave my girlfriend oral sex. My girlfriend's mom complained to the police department , and the officer was given the option to either quit or get fired due to his inappropriate behavior...He decided to quit...Now, 61/2 my girlfriend wants to get him to pay for what he did, since she feels like this guy took advantage of her innocence. Problem is that when we contacted the police department they said that they couldn't raise any criminal charges against him because the act was consensual and because the legal age of consent in texas is 17. What options do we have, can we still file a civil complaint? What if we have reasons to believe that he is also sexually abusing his daughters? Call dhs? PLEASE HELP!

Resolved Question: Can anyone give me some info about going to the nascar race at Texas Motor Speedway?

Some friends and I will be going to the Nascar race in April 2010. Any info on places to stay would be great. Would like to stay somewhere that would be close to great bars. I'm not sure if that would be downtown Dallas or not. Also, I know traffic can be horrible going and coming from the race so, is there bus services or anything that would be a better idea. Thanks P.S. Don"t want to stay at some dirty cheap motel but also not looking to break the bank!

Resolved Question: Pick me a nice vacation - I've never had one before!!?

Other than a day-trip to St. Augustine, I've never been on a proper vacation in my life. I've only traveled to visit family, and that was to MN or WV so go figure. I finally have a week off and some money to spend, so I want go on a vacation, and there are so many options I'm not sure what to do. I'm not picky, so long as there are a few factors I'll stick to: I live in Texas, fairly new here. I am looking for something inexpensive (read: total of $2000 or less with gas, food, motel/other lodging and attractions included), and want to stick to warm climates, so anywhere in FL, AL, MS, LA, TX, NM, AZ is good. I like things like theme parks, history/art museums depending on the cultural background, and am interested in doing either really relaxing things (think beach lounging, fruity drinks) or really challenging for a beginner (think hiking, camping, etc, but in a venue where I can have nice pics and maybe a souveniur or two to bring home) Basically, I know if I go to LA, I can do Mardi Gras/FL I can do Disney or beaches, and so am looking for other suggestions for off-the-beaten-path type vacations. One-stop or multi-stop; I have ten days! :) Notes: I've lived in FL and done Disney, so not looking for that experience again. I resided Tampa and Orlando, so if suggesting something there, let me know whats down in Miami or up the panhandle - NOT a non-stop party like I hear southbeach is! :) On TX - I live in San Antonio. :) Am planning to get around the weekend-getaways for Texas surrounding area throughout the year - February is my one week with time to T...R...A...V...E...L :)

Resolved Question: Visiting Austin, need advice?

Hi there, I'm from England, and I'm visiting Austin, Texas in August. I'm a non-driver (or, rather, I'm a non-driver when it comes to American roads, and entirely too frightened to try) and so I was hoping you helpful folk would have some advice as to which hotels/motels would be good to stay at? It's a friend and I, no parking necessary (obviously), on a budget, and so we would be very grateful if anybody had any advice as to which hotels would be good for those who will have to walk everywhere. Sure, we could get a cab everywhere, but it adds up pretty quickly. Thank you in advance. Hi, Kris, I'm hoping to be downtown, I guess, because we're only there for a week, and hoping to find stuff to entertain us every day. Last time I came to Austin, I chose very poorly, ended up on the freeway, and thus stuck in my hotel for nearly two weeks. So my last experience was a poor one, but let it not be said I have not learned from my mistakes! We're staying 8 nights, and I'm happy to spend $1000 ish dollars, a price which both Super 8 Downtown/Capitol area and La Quinta Capitol Area have met, but I don't wanna make the same mistake as last time, and be stuck! My main priority is just being able to mingle with Texans. I'm a little obsessed! The room is really only somewhere to rest our heads at night, so it doens't have to be a 4* place. Thanks again for taking the time to reply!

Resolved Question: Applied for medicaid an I am a student, was asked about the father,he works at motel will he have to pay back?

I am a student in Texas. Gave my boyfriends information when I applied for medicaid. He just recently told me they will make him pay all the expenses back so he was worried. He is a student also and works a motel. Should I have said I don't know who the father is to avoid having him pay this back? Does this effect him being able to sign the birth certificate?
