SATURDAY STUFF AND CRAZY LAWS

If you've been reading this blog, you may notice that twice a year, I'll post about dumb laws for a particular state. Today, Pennsylvania hit the lottery, with a focus on certain cities.  I'm sure you'll be scratching your head like I did. (lol)

Carlisle

In the middle of town, one must pay a fee of $50 dollars a year to park on a particular block.

Connellsville

One’s pants may be worn no lower than five inches below the waist.

Danville

All fire hydrants must be checked one hour before all fires.

Millville

The sale of alcohol is prohibited.

One may not shoot any dog that is found wandering the streets.

Morrisville

It is required that a woman have a permit to wear cosmetics.

Newtown

Every outlet or switch (which can be purchased for 59 cents) that is installed requires an electrical inspection fee of 1 dollar and 33 cents.

Pittsburgh

No one is allowed to sleep on a refrigerator.

It is still illegal to bring a donkey or a mule onto a trolley car.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN A  VICTIM OF GOSSIP?
As a kid, I gossiped and talked about people all the time.  I thought it was cute and funny. Never mind that it got me into all kinds of trouble.  Then it happened to me, and the shoe was on the other foot.  Once I got older, I realized that if something was going on, it made much more sense to address it directly with that person, rather than stabbing him or her in the back.  If we've pissed you off or offended you in some manner, let's just get it out in the open so it can be addressed.  No one wants to see their name plastered across the world of social media, or to hear something they've said come up at the company water cooler, or on the phone.  It hurts feelings, ruins work relationships, breaks up friendships or divides families. Sometimes the things being shared aren't even true, making it even worse!

Let's resolve it and move on.We know this in our head, yet, for some reason we still keep doing it, forgetting about the circle of kindness, and the wisdom of watching our tongues.


SETTLEMENT PAYMENTS 
You would be simply amazed at all of the class action suits out there, ranging from Dentyne Gum you've chewed, mouthwash you've gargled, or diet pills you've ingested.  Sometimes you may find a one page posting in a magazine letting you know about the product in question, but if you want to know in real time about any open claims, and how you can be paid, sign up for FREE at http://www.topclassactions.com/.  

FOOTBALL MANIA
Once upon a time during Superbowl 20, I was a football ninja, winning pools, discussing point spreads and knowing all the players by name.  Fast forward to 2016, and I have literally no clue what in the heck is going on.  What I do know is that there are football thingys are over the place to eat, purchase or look at.  Here's a few:
