HOUMA, La. - Police in this town wouldn't cut a break for a barber who ran afoul of an obscure law barring him from working Sundays and Mondays.
Clyde Scott had opened his shop May 19 just to trim up a few students getting ready for their graduation ceremony when an officer gave him a citation.
A law on the books in Houma for decades bars barbers from working Sundays, Mondays, any of several holidays and even the day after Labor Day.
"I didn't know it existed," said Scott, 32, who has owned Clippas barbershop for about two years. "It's crazy."

Leighann.... HEY! Tuesdays at noon means Word Game time, have Harry some other day at noon...LOL!
Little known fact, they call their hookers Pelicans after the state bird because the lower portion of a pelican's pouch can be greatly extended.
Other odd laws in Louisiana include the banning of the games Guitar Hero and Rock Band.
Doc, don't you think that there's ONE good thing about Guitar Hero and Rock Band?? That one thing being the fact that kids are exposed to an array of music they might not otherwise be exposed to?
:P
Please, I can play word game and take care of Harry at the same time. I'm that damn good!

By the way, why are we the only 3 playing today??
Doc, don't you think that there's ONE good thing about Guitar Hero and Rock Band??
Hmmmmm Lemme think about it... Um NO!
The music isn't even real. It's like digitized or something and sounds all fuzzy but yes, people may get to hear a fake made up version of a song that an artist slaved over for years to write which is now reduced to a "score" over how many clicky buttons you can press in a row. Hopefully it would make them want to hear how it REALLY sounds... but I doubt it.
By the way, why are we the only 3 playing today??
Does that make it a threesome?
(whoops did I just go out of PG-13?)
Hi. Extrememly busy today. I will check back in later.....
Then that would make Mt Cat a voyeur.
Okay Doc, I concede. I didn't know the music was sucky. I've never seen the games played, only the advertised versions.
WOW! Lookit how quickly Mt Cat POPPED UP at the mention of a threesome!
Doc, I think Lu and I should get some special glazed peaches for our extraordinary efforts today!
:D
Lu, let's just hope he's not covered head to toe in bacon grease!
HA!!
I think our peeps are still in slow motion from the holiday. Heck I forgot today was Tuesday and we needed a word game until about 10 am.
:p
Ewwww @ the glazed peaches! I know what you were thinking Leighann!
I got nothing right now. Maybe later. Today is a crazy busy day since I'll be gone tomorrow and most of Th.
Peeled, honey glazed and all shiney like!
Apple, get your mind out of my gutter! *snicker*

Speaking of Dag, it's a shame he lost the election last year after being caught in a compromising position with some shrimp.
Other odd laws in Louisiana include one that was proposed but shot down in the state legislature for the banning of boobs for beads.
Other odd laws in Louisiana include __________________ .
They did however pass the law prohibiting the solicitation of boobs for beads during any other time except for Mardi Gras. It was just getting out of hand. Boobies were flashing here there and every where. There is a large movement to repeal that recently enacted law.
I have flashed mine for a train and for bikers but never for beads.
Rock Band Again? Preach it Doc!
Dadgummitt I missed that train Lu :(
BTW - I always knew I liked you Knight!
Doc, it was a long time ago when they and I were more perky :) The train was in Laguna Niguel, http://www.moonamtrak.org/ Obviously I flashed more than my boobies *blush*
Doc, I forgot to mention that étouffée's pimp would be named Catahoula. His Mom named him after the State dog, the Catahoula Leopard. Strange how at birth she knew he'd grow up to be a dog. Just adding more texture to the story.
There will be NO MAKING G TRY TO BE CLEVER WHILE SHE IS HUNGOVER. It's just wrong. I need at least one day to recover from a three day weekend!
I told ya'll some of my peeps were in slow motion today! BTW - you are fine G. I am glad you had a fun time with Mama G!
