I may be opening up a can of worms, but the talk about Demon Alcohol got
me thinking about Blue Laws in general. 

A friend of mine was driving his family cross-country and on a Sunday (I
can't remember the state) tried to get milk for his kid.  The sale of
milk was prohibited, but he was able to get cigarettes. 

In high school in Arkansas, I was reading through the statutes and found
a law which prohibited the existence of soda pop machines within 1/4
mile of a church:  interestingly enough, our church had a machine in its
basement.
