223 years after our country was founded, Government works on the last major problem facing our country.

Truth is truly stranger than fiction.

Thank God I live in Texas, where it's still legal to answer my door naked (of course, there's no way I'd ever do that!), and to carry a concealed weapon.

The question is: how does one do both (I'm leaving this one alone!)?

I was sure I could make some witty comment on this article, but I have to admit I am just hanging speechless with my mouth open. God help the Republic!

To conceal your weapon and go naked to the door is a question for Miss Manners. I suggest a nice little soft cotton fanny pack to carry while receiving guests in the nude. Works for me.

Strangers who knock on your door could be important.

As you answer the door in the nude wearing your all cotton fanny pack I stand licking my fingers at the end of a long checkout line.

[cajungirl]

Say what? What on earth do you mean? Are you per chance eating grapes or candy in the grocery line? If so I shall report you to the authorities and answer the door naked when they come to take the report of the major crime.

Don't answer that door naked, wear your Thunderwear!

There is at least one coconut in every crowd. Med check please.

LOL!!!!!!!!

For your own protection, you better FreepMail your address so I can come over and talk some sense to you!!! ;^0

...just kidding!

[mombonn]

As I said on another thread going - Anyone who would answer the door naked wouldn't stop just because there's a law against it.

boing!

It may seem like an absurd law unless your child has been subjected to seeing the nude neighbor. Think about it.

As for this lawmaker's initiative to stop finger-licking cashiers, I'd love to see that one passed in my state. I don't want someone's spit on my bags, especially now that there is a very virulent strain of tuberculosis among us. I have, on more than one occasion, complained to store managers about this disgusting practice.

She is not wearing her tinfoil hat in this picture?

Actually, I'm just letting the dog answer the door. Always naked, always armed :).

[Wolfie]

I'd definitely support a law banning Rep. Pelote from answering the door naked.

Whatever she's packin' in there, we know it doesn't rhyme with Glock.

When I was five years old, my older sister was having a birthday party. For some reason, I was walking around the house naked and when her guest arrived, I opened the door. I remember not understanding the laughter.

I thought sure'd you'd say that Maryland has enough laws...my dad lived in Gaithersburg the last 15 years of his life. I remember MD as a Big Brother state.

There are better ways to stop people that expose themselves to children, and none of them include passing new laws...I'll leave it to your imagination.

In all my years of shopping, I must say I can't recall somebody spitting on my shopping bags. Of course, in Texas, we use plastic bags more than paper bags. Thanks for the warning about the new strain of TB, hasn't been reported in the Lone Star State.
