Dumb law day Australian style

Lets head down under, Tiddles roots are planted there, coming from down under I thought I would look up some of their silly and dumb laws, like all the countries and states I have mentioned in the past, Australia has some of their own also many many years old that need a little updating, lets take the first one for example, them move on to the silly and just bizarre.

1, You must have a neck to knee swimsuit in order to swim at Brighton Beach.
2, It is technically illegal to copy music from CDs you own onto your MP3 player or iPod... (technically illegal? and my ex is technically an arsehole but what can you do?)
3, It is illegal to read someone's tarot, or give them a psychic reading as these are forms of witchcraft.
4, Until the Port Arthur Killings it was legal to own an AK-47 but not legal to be gay.
5, It is illegal to roam the streets wearing black clothes, felt shoes and black shoe polish on your face as these items are the tools of a cat burglar. (maybe soon illegal to wear miniskirts as it is the known clothing of a street worker)
6, It is illegal to walk on the right hand side of a footpath. (as it should be ~rolls eyes)
7, Under Australian Communications Authority (ACA) regulations, a modem can’t pick up on the first ring.
8, Only licensed electricians may change a light bulb. (how many Aussies does it take to change a light bulb? obviously one and he has to be licensed)
9, Bars are required to stable, water and feed the horses of their patrons. (what about the poor asses? obviously I mean donkeys!)
10,It is illegal to wear hot pink pants after midday Sunday. (this should be illegal everywhere in the world, every day of the week!)
