Bullets may not be used as currency.

Boston:
No one may cross the Boston Common without carrying a shotgun in case of bears.
It is illegal to eat peanuts in church.
Two people may not kiss in front of a church.

Hopkinton: Though horses and cows are allowed on the common, dogs are prohibited.

Longmeadow: It is illegal for two men to carry a bathtub across the town green.

Marlboro: One may not detonate a nuclear device in the city.

Newton: All families must be given a hog from the town's mayor.

tee hee ...
