All right, nothing hurt, nothing hurt. We will move on. So we've been talking about, you know, what do you know about your state's history? And we went through the list and we learned a lot of really cool stuff. So, Peter has left and now we're moving to Bentley. He's going to be our number one guy on the list. And so George made me get to thinking. And we can continue talking about, you know, different historic things that happen in our state. I probably will because that's where my focus is. But George got me thinking. Do you all have any weird laws that you know of about your area or your state? Texas has a lot. George is missing the blue laws. So for people who are not familiar with blue laws, Texas has blue laws. We don't sell alcohol on Sundays. We don't sell alcohol on holidays. It's actually pretty lax today compared to what it used to be. If you forgot to pick up your beer for that Dallas Cowboy football game that starts at noon on a Sunday, you're out of luck. You can buy it on Sunday afternoon but not before noon. Let's see, what are some other weird blue laws or just laws? Oh, okay, Weatherford. Weatherford is a town next to us. It's a 15-minute drive to the east. And they actually have a law on the books that they continue to use to this day that if you don't call in advance or notify them in advance that you're driving a motor vehicle through their town, they can stop you. They use it. They use it whenever they think there's trafficking going on, drug, human or whatever. They use that law. And in fact, it was challenged not too long ago and it was upheld. So there's a weird law. You know, that's a law that gives them the ability to basically stop anybody. I mean, I don't agree with the law but it's a weird law. I'm trying to do this off the top of my head because I'm walking around my living room. What other weird laws do we have? I'll think of it and come back on some of the next overs. Texas has a lot of weird laws and I just can't think of them off the top of my head. So I'll do a little research. So let's do that. So we'll continue on talking about our state. You can talk about the history but I want to know about some of the weird laws or the weird idiosyncrasies that make your state different. So with that, let's start back up at the top of our list and that's going to be Mr. Bentley, VE3-SBX. I'm going to pass it back to you. This is VE3-SBX. I don't know of any special laws but our Premier just did pass a law, I guess, banning photo radar in Ontario. So a lot of little towns or little cities had them up around schools and are here and there and he has banned them. They have to pull them down saying that they were a cash grab. So we'll see what happens over that one. I did read something kind of interesting this morning about some US states, can't remember which ones off the top of my head, banning VPNs. So it's going to be harder to download those ISOs everybody likes so much. Back to you, Josh. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7, November Quebec November. Alright, KJ5-ILQ returning. I'll have to look into that. I haven't heard that states are trying to ban VPNs. I think they're going to have a hard time with that one. I mean that's kind of the whole purpose of VPNs. I mean, shoot, you can, how are they going to know if you host a VPN on your own Raspberry Pi on your own network? They won't know that. But the states not. That's weird. I'll have to look into that. I'll have to dig into that one. But we will, we will. Moving down to gray KC2-PKG. Again, the state history is awesome. But weirdness, audio syncosies, weird things that apply to your state or a place that you've been at. It doesn't have to be a state. If you know of any other place that has weird stuff, let's talk about it. KJ5-ILQ, sending it to you, Mr. Gray.
