OFF: Silly laws in the USA

[Ed Gallagher]

I remember hearing that it's illegal to cary an ice cream cone in your
pocket in Texas.

For quite some time (maybe still) it was (or is) illegal to buy baby
food, diapers and lots of other stuff on Sundays in South Carolina. Part
of a bunch of laws that were refered to as "Blue Laws".

I still wonder where they got that name.
