Dumb Laws
We need laws to keep us all in order so we don't turn into characters from Lord of the Flies. But what about those silly laws passed by our leaders long ago? For example, did you know in Denver it's illegal to mistreat rats? In the same vein, in California it's illegal to set up a mousetrap without a hunting license. In Alberta, Canada, businesses are required to provide rails for tying up horses. Check out this site to see how many laws you're breaking right now.

Of course, it helps that his brother finds a part for him to play in all his movies.
