		<description><![CDATA[During my recent visit to Salt Lake City, Utah for a conference - I came across some strange laws for the State of Utah. I thought they were worth sharing.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I&#8217;m sure most of you are aware &#8211; I&#8217;m currently at a Dynamical Systems Conference in a Conference Resort near Salt Lake City, Utah. Now, just to set the scene for what&#8217;s to follow &#8211; imagine the following;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d like 3 bottles of beer please.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m afraid I can&#8217;t serve that to you sir.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Pardon?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s Utah State Law that you are only allowed to have 1 drink at any one time.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, after realising that Utah State Law prohibits me from having a single friend, I started asking around for more of the crazy laws that the Mormons have enforced upon the fun-hating state of Utah. Here are my top 5, in no particular order.</p>
<p><strong>Birds have the right of way on all Highways: </strong>I kid you not.</p>
<p><strong>No dancing in a public place after 2AM: </strong>They don&#8217;t serve alcohol after 1am, but still &#8211; you have to go to a private residence is you want to dance after 2am.</p>
<p><strong>It is against the law to fish from Horseback in Utah: </strong>Fair enough!</p>
<p><strong>One Drink at at Time: </strong>Yup, if you order another drink, and it arrives before you&#8217;ve finished your first &#8211; you either down it, or send the other one back. On a similar note, it&#8217;s illegal to have a pitcher of drink at a table with just one person sitting at it.</p>
<p><strong>A husband is responsible for every criminal act committed by his wife while she is in his presence:</strong> Interesting.</p>
