Resolved Question: Sister In Law Escalating Provocative Gestures & Situations?

50 year old guy, have been married for 17 years. My wife is a wonderful lady, and her older sister is a carbon copy. Both are poised, elegant, classy...but with a very keen sense of their femininity. About three years ago my sister in law had a horrific break up and divorce from a 25 year marriage. Her husband was an ass, and left her for a considerably younger women. She has not been the same, and seems to have become a serial dater and heartbreaker ever since. Last year, she joined us at our home for three weeks. We have a lovely summer home on a lake in Arkansas, and she loves boating. I was pulled over by the lake patrol for a routine life preserver check. My sister in law is still a mildly attractive woman for her age, and she flirted, twisted and pouted herself at the poor cop. It was embarrassing. A few nights later, I turned off the TV around midnight, and she snuck up behind me. I could smell heavy alcohol. She mumbled something and brushed against me. VERY obvious. I mentioned this to my wife, who told me her sister needed to feel wanted again. I said that was fine, but I did not want her! Two days ago, she stayed with us at our home in Texas. I keep the house cold, but out of pity (she had on three blankets!) I asked her if she would mind if I started a fire. She looked very happy, and a built a HUGE fire. The room was very Christmas like, and she started casting off blankets. She got down to the last one, and looked at me and said, "don't look." Oh hell, what now? She had on a very short, very see through white nightgown. The fire made it almost transparent. Have to say, even her breasts resemble my wife's. I went back to my football game, and tried not to look. She got up to get another glass of wine, and I realized she had nothing on underneath. Not the best buttocks, but a strange chill in seeing them. She came back, and I tried to figure out how to get my wife out of the kitchen and in here to save me. That night, my wife went to neighbors for a few hours. My sister in law had been drinking for a few hours, and TV bored me. I told her I was going to go to sleep, please ask my wife to be quiet when she got home. After a shower, I quickly fell asleep (I had a bit of grogg myself). I felt my wife come to bed, but rolled over on my side away from her. A few minutes later, she was spooning with me. I smelled strong alcohol. Tried to turn around, but she pressed her body against mine, and reached across to my crotch. I was very, very hard. She began to rub me, and I reached around to do the same. Nothing was said. We did this for a bit, and then she rolled on her side away from me. I turned around, spooning with her. I slid in so easily. In five minutes, we were done. My wife came home around midnight, and my heart was still pounding. She gave me a kiss, apologized for staying so long, and asked me how my evening was. Does she know? Did she want this to happen? I feel horrible, I knew it was not her but did not stop it. Even worse, I want more. What should I do?Cee Cee, I am SO SORRY that my moment of weakness has this effect on you. more

Voting Question: Can schools release school pictures, ordering forms, and school records to people?

My child just started school in Arkansas. Some of my ex-inlaws work for the school district. At the beginning we specifically requested to the teacher and principle not to release any information or allow contact with my child while at school. The school agreed and had no problems. School pictures came along and the in laws requested from the principle pictures and order forms. The principle gave a school photo and an order form. Can they do this? Of course that's not all, they also release report cards and other records to the step-parent while the parent was out of state. The step-parent has a power of attorney and claims that gives them all legal rights of the parent including unlimited access to school records. We're checking on the legality of this. If you know the answer to this please feel free to let us know.havn't seen the power of attorny, but was told that it specifies the child. We were told by our lawyer during the last hearing that a power of attorny can not transfer visitation rights in the absence of the non-custodial parent regardless of what it says, we have done fought that battle, but now there using it for records and such. The picture thing, the inlaw has no sort of power of attorny or nothing. They just happen to be related and work at the school.Said no they can't release info. But the non-custodial parent has unlimited access to records through the custody papers. They just are trying to give that right to someone else via power of attorney. more

Resolved Question: are these Short Redneck Jokes funny or not? hmm just noticed had a lot of jokes deleted yesterday hmmm?

How do you know when you're staying in a Arkansas hotel? When you call the front desk and say, "I gotta leak in my sink," and the clerk replies, "Go ahead." How can you tell if a Louisiana redneck is married? There's dried tobacco juice on both sides of his pickup truck. Did you hear that they have raised the minimum drinking age in Oklahoma to 32? It seems they want to keep alcohol out of the high schools. A guy from Alabama passed away and left his entire estate to his beloved widow, but she can't touch it 'til she's 14. What do they call reruns of "Hee Haw" in Alabama? Documentaries. Where was the toothbrush invented? Mississippi. If it would've been invented anywhere else, it would have been called a teeth brush. A Georgia state trooper pulls over a pickup on I-75 and says to the driver, "Got any I.D.?" and the driver replies "Bout wut?" Did you hear about the $3 million Arkansas State Lottery? The winner gets $3.00 a year for a million years. The governor's mansion in Alabama burned down! Yep. Pert' near took out the whole trailer park. The library was a total loss, too. Both books -- poof! -- up in flames and he hadn't even finished coloring one of them. A new law was recently passed in Mississippi: When a couple gets divorced, they are STILL cousins. more

Resolved Question: Obscure Laws (Long but FUNNY)?

The Greek sage Aristotle once penned, "Even when the laws have been written down, they ought not always remain unchanged." Not only is this wise advice, but also prophetic. Especially when you focus on some of the driving laws that loiter on the pages of state statutes. Tennessee, for example, has a law that bans shooting game, other than whales, from moving vehicles. Apparently, this law was authored during an unusually high tide or after too many dizzying spins on a Tilt-a-Whirl at Dollyworld. Chances of any whale finding its way into Tennessee via the Cumberland River are about as likely as Tony Danza winning a lifetime achievement award at the Cannes Film Festival. Yet, it exists. So as to assure that your next cross-country vacation does not get pricked by the thorns of legality, we at DMV.ORG have organized a list of arcane state laws that you should be aware of. For nothing can be more embarrassing than having to phone your attorney from Kentucky for help in escaping a fine for trying to transport an ice cream cone in your back pocket. Alabama It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle. It is legal to drive the wrong way down a one-way street as long as a lantern is attached to the front of your car. Driving barefoot is illegal. Alaska It is illegal to tie a dog to the roof of your car. Arkansas It is illegal for a person to blare the horn on a vehicle at any place where cold drinks or sandwiches are served after 9 p.m. California Any woman dressed in a housecoat is prohibited from driving a car. It is illegal in San Francisco to buff or dry your car with used underwear. No unoccupied vehicle may exceed 60 miles per hour. Florida If an elephant is tied to a parking meter, the owner or attendant must deposit money in the meter. Georgia State Assembly members are immune from being ticketed for speeding while the State Assembly is in session. In Marietta, Georgia, it is illegal to spit from a moving car or bus, but is okay from a moving truck. Illinois In Evanston, Illinois, it is unlawful to change clothes while inside a car with the curtains drawn, except during a fire. Kansas In Derby, Kansas, it is considered a misdemeanor to screech your tires while driving. Kentucky If you stop for ice cream while driving, be aware that it is considered unlawful to transport an ice cream cone in your back pocket. Massachusetts You will be ticketed if you drive with a gorilla in the backseat of your car. Michigan If you car breaks down in Detroit and you are waiting for assistance, be aware that sitting in the middle of the street to read a newspaper is illegal. Minnesota It is illegal to cross state lines, regardless if you are walking or driving, with a duck on your head. And, if you're crossing into Wisconsin, the law also applies to chickens. In Minnetonka, Minnesota, if you drive a truck that leaves mud, dirt, or sticky substances on any road, you will be considered a public nuisance who is harming the peace, safety, and general welfare of the town. You cannot ride a motorcycle without a shirt. Montana In Whitehall, Montana, vehicles are prohibited from driving with ice picks attached to the wheels. Nevada It is illegal to drive a camel on the highway. New Jersey Drivers are required to beep their car horns before passing another vehicle. If convicted of driving while intoxicated, you permanently lose the option of registering for a vanity license plate. North Carolina In Dunn, North Carolina, it is illegal to drive on a sidewalk. Ohio In Oxford, Ohio, authorities will ticket you if you consecutively drive around the town square more than 100 times. Keep in mind that if your car breaks down and you phone for a cab, you will be ticketed if you opt to ride on the cab's roof. Oklahoma It is considered illegal to read a comic book while driving. Oregon You will be ticketed if you leave your car door open longer than is deemed necessary. You will be slapped with a Class A traffic violation if you use your car on an Oregon highway to prove your physical endurance. It is illegal to pump your own gas. Pennsylvania If you spy a team of approaching horses, you are required by law to pull to the side of the road and cover your car with a blanket or dust cover that has been painted or sewn to blend into the scenery. But, if the horses react skittish to your efforts, you are then required to disassemble your car and hide the parts in the nearby underbrush. South Carolina In Hilton Head, South Carolina, you cannot leave trash in your vehicle out of fear of attracting rats. Tennessee It is illegal to fire a gun at any wild game other than whales from a moving car. West Virginia It is perfectly legal, for road maintenance purposes, to scavenge road kill. more
