Hi:
Would you please email me off this list? I have some general questions about the school/studio. Sorry to clutter the list. Thanks!

Best,
Justin

Don't know about Ann Arbor rules....are they anything like these?

Dumb Michigan Laws
A woman isn't allowed to cut her own hair without her husband's permission.
There is a 10 cent bounty for each rat's head brought into a town office.
It is legal for a robber to file a law suit, if he or she got hurt in your house.
You may not swear in front of women and children in the state of Michigan.
Clawson
There is a law that makes it legal for a farmer to sleep with his pigs, cows, horses, goats, and chickens.
Detroit
Couples are banned from making love in an automobile unless the act takes place while the vehicle is parked on the couple's own property.
Willfully destroying your old radio is prohibited.
It is illegal for a man to scowl at his wife on Sunday.
Alligators may not be tied to fire hydrants.
It is illegal to let your pig run free in Detroit unless it has a ring in its nose. According to history and animal husbandry, it prevents them from "rooting" in the ground for their food.
Grand Haven
No person shall throw an abandoned hoop skirt into any street or on any sidewalk, under penalty of a five- dollar fine for each offense.
Harper Woods
It is illegal to paint sparrows to sell them as parakeets.
Kalamazoo
It is against the law to serenade your girlfriend.
Rochester
All bathing suits must have been inspected by the head of police.
Soo
Smoking while in bed is illegal.
Wayland
Anyone can keep their cow on Main Street downtown at a cost of 3 cents per day.

By the way...who is Ann Arbor, and is she good looking?

As outdated as most of these laws are (every state has a list just like this, BTW), a couple of years ago a guy was prosecuted and convicted on this one in Michigan. He was canoeing up north on one of the many rivers and his canoe tipped over. He let out a blue streak and some folks were nearby with their kiddies that took offense. Long-story-short of it is that he was fined and did time for his "self-expression."

Remember that one. Glad they kept the standard. Though I'd be putting a lot of quarters in the cuss jar during football season. Oh, and speaking of....

General Schwarzkopf was walking through the desert during the Gulf War when he found a lamp on the ground. He picked it up, rubbed, and out came a genie. The genie said to the General, "I will grant you one wish." The General replied, "I wish that we will win this war. Here is a map of the desert and all the war parties. Please make us win the war." The genie responded, "I'm not that powerful of a genie. I cannot grant you that wish." "Well," the General responds, "then can you have University of Michigan win a bowl game this year?" After a moment, the genie says, "Let me see that map again."

Q: How do you make University of Michigan cookies?
A: Put them in a big Bowl and beat for 3 hours.

Just can't resist.

Stafford, Virginia

It is illegal for a man to collect and display Nose Goblin collections under penalty of a five-dollar fine for each offense. Consuming such a collection in the presence of police may result in an alligator being tied to your fire hydrant.

Let's get a few things straight.

1) This is not about football.
2) Michigan's student orchestra just won 3 Grammy's a few nights ago.
3) Ohio State's music school hasn't done anything like that ever.

(I know, because I attended both schools)

If you attended both schools then you know that in either state, when the other is mentioned it is always about football.
Other than that the other two points don't matter.

However...congrats to the student orchestra!

Kevin,
Well I say he does have to shoot me now!
SO SHOOT ME NOW!!!!
