Are there any fresh Ohio jokes floating around? All I can find are the one-liner chestnuts. The potholes are better in Ohio because they're always filled with snow. Ohio has four seasons: Winter, Almost-winter, Just-after-winter, and Construction. Fine; gems all, if a bit rusty. Somebody please tell me a new one.

What's up with these weird laws? Most cities and states have old, obsolete, ridiculous laws on the books that aren't worth deleting. Are these for real? If so, I vote they remain in effect forever:

* You're not allowed to get a fish drunk. (Damn! They're much better company that way.)
* It is illegal to mistreat anything of importance. (So telemarketers are exempt. Mistreatment proceeding.)
* Owners of tigers must notify quthorities within an hour if the beast escapes. (That gives me time for a Starbucks trip. BRB.)
* In Cleveland, you can't catch mice without a hunting license. (Well, sure. Big game; endangered species. Regulations are needed.)
* In Columbus, stores are outlawed from selling Corn Flakes on Sundays. (Other religions might differ, but the Christian God doesn't eat sugared cereal.)
