Reminds me of a visit to a Chinese restaurant up nawth. The wiater asked what I would like to drink with my peeper steak and fried rice, and I replied unsweetened tea. He brought me a pot of hot unsweetened tea.

Up north, there is a law that peeper steak must be served with a pot of hot tea. If you'd ordered the pepper steak, you would have gotten iced tea.

Wow, amazing. Yes I think most Blue laws are no longer in the books.

...serve Iced Tea in Massachusetts...

Oh darlin', is there any other way to serve it? Tea is always iced and sweet. Any other way is not of God.

A New England state that declared obscene any lovemaking vigorous enough to wind a self-winding watch.

Silly damn Puritans and their Blue Laws. (insert obligatory eye roll here)
