Indiana: Don’t try and flirt your way into a free drink — bartenders can receive a Class B misdemeanor if they serve a drink on the house. According to the law, alcohol sellers are not allowed to “discriminate” between customers by offering one drink at a different price. Class B misdemeanors carry up to a $1,500 fine or jail time.

In Marshalltown, Iowa you’re prohibited from displaying a poster or sign containing the word “saloon,” even if you’re the owner of one. Terms including bar and barroom are also prohibited.

Kentucky: You’re not allowed to display, handle or use a reptile during a religious service. That means no alligators (or lizards, snakes, turtles or tuataras) at church or else you could face as much as a $100 fine.

Louisiana: It’s illegal to go to a boxing match and make “insulting or abusive” remarks at the fighters. Did your guy just take an uppercut to the chin? Keep it polite — you can yell until you’re hoarse, but make sure it’s constructive criticism.

Maine: While it’s not illegal to get into the Christmas spirit, keep those decorations up too long — past Jan. 14 — and you could receive a fine.

In Minneapolis, you may find yourself fighting for a parking space even if your own driveway has plenty of room — only two vehicles can be parked on any property at one time.

The word “meat” can’t be used to describe anything but animal flesh in Missouri — which means that fake meat and lab-grown meat have to be called something else in the state.

The strangest fine in Vermont we could substantiate: It’s illegal to prohibit people from putting up clotheslines. The state wanted to get ahead of landlords and Homeowner Associations standing in the way of renewable energy sources.

It’s one of the most iconic images from World War II: a group of U.S. Marines raising the American flag at the Battle of Iwo Jima.

And now the U.S. Marine Corps admits it has long misidentified one of the service members who took part in the flag-raising – three years after admitting a similar error.

According to NBC News, a team of historians recently determined that one of the Marines in the photo was Cpl. Harold “Pie” Keller, not Pfc. Rene Gagnon, as had long been believed.

The correction comes three years after a previous inquiry found that another of the flag-raisers was Pfc. Harold Schultz, not Navy hospital corpsman John Bradley, NBC reported.

Call three friends, jump in the bubble gum pink Jeep, and hop on the Pacific Coast Highway. The Barbie Malibu Dreamhouse is available to rent.

It is beachy and dreamy, and it is very, very pink. Better yet? It's only $60 per night on Airbnb.

The USS Enterprise, or "Big E," is the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and has more steel construction than the Empire State Building. Though decommissioned in 2012, the Enterprise was once the Navy's largest vessel — with a 1960 price tag of $451 million.

Tales of a New Zealand entomologist in the late 19th century, and even a Ben Franklin quip about reducing candle wax use over a hundred years earlier, are often credited with the birth of Daylight Saving Time, but Germany and Austria were the two countries that ushered in Daylight Saving Time back in 1916 "during World War I to decrease energy used for lights and help conserve energy supplies to help the war effort," per CBS News. DST began in the United States in 1918

I've read that FL has voted to end the states' participation in Daylight Savings Time, but apparently it has to be OK'ed by the Federal Government for some reason. I'm hoping that they OK it soon as I hate the time change in the winter months.
