But I do know of a couple of other laws that are still on the books, including: Snoring is prohibited unless all bedroom windows are closed and securely locked. It is illegal for a woman to be on top in sexual activities. (Lol! Who's looking? That's what I want to know!) |

Diana Sinclair Posts: 10119 Joined: 3rd Apr 2008 Location: USA | quotePosted at 17:33 on 29th October 2009 I am dead dog serious. Both of those are still active laws on the books in Massachusetts. Lol. It's also still on the books that a native American may not come within the city limits of Boston proper. |

After 1pm, was 'family time' and that allowed for things such as a walk to the park etc and feeding the duck/birds then, would be proper. How times change. |
