I was on vacation :).

While trying to get myself back into the normal home routine, I watched Ken Burns’ documentary Prohibition. One of the interviewees commented that all you needed to get people to do something was make it illegal. That got me thinking…

Things That Should Be Made Illegal Immediately…

On the Road:

1. driving at least the speed limit in the left lane of an interstate
2. merging into the ‘cash only’ lane prior to getting to the toll booth, but only where the lane demarcation signs start 2 miles before the booth
3. staying in your own lane when you have no reason to merge other than you’re bored with the lane you’re currently in

At the Supermarket:

1. laying bread ON TOP of the canned goods
2. having a maximum of 25 items in the supermarket lane clearly marked ’15 items or less’
3. making sure the container of sushi a customer just bought is right side up in the bag

Life in General:

1. taking your junk mail upstairs to your own trash can / recycle bin instead of throwing it on the ground
2. parking in one space, between the lines
3. free cupcakes
