Opplysninger

Tenkte jeg skulle gi litt opplysninger om hvordan Kansas egentlig er...

Som alle vet er det mange krigsveteraner i USA. Et eksempel er Phillip's nabo, som faar hele familien til aa staa ute paa plenen foran huset, og, med haanden paa hjertet, synge nationalsangen mens han heiser det Amerikanske flagget. Alt 5.30 om morgen. Hver morgen.

I januar skal alle AFS utvekslings studentene til Topika (en by her i Kansas), paa en saann midt orientering greie.
Utdrag fra: http://www.dumblaws.com
Topeka:

No one may sing the alphabet on the streets at night.
Snowball fights are illegal.
Dead chickens may not be hauled across Kansas Avenue. (Alle andre veier er dette selvfoelgelig lov...)

Derby (ligger ca 20 minutter fra der jeg bor. Mange utvekslings venner som bor der, og vi moetes gjevnlig)

Hitting a vending machine that stole your money is illegal.
Riding an animal down any road is against the law.

Wichita (My town...)

One must get a permit from the city if they wish to take dirt from the airport.
Hopefully everyone in the city has a trash can, because dumping their waste in a city pool is against the law.
Before proceeding through the interesection of Douglas and Broadway, a motorist is required to get out of their vehice and fire three shot gun rounds into the air.

Kansas (saann hele Kansas liksom...)

Rabbits may not be shot from motorboats.
Pedestrians crossing the highways at night must wear tail lights
No one may catch fish with his bare hands.
If two trains meet on the same track, neither shall proceed until the other has passed. (HAHA)
