Let's face it - the Heart of Dixie doesn't always do things perfectly. There are times that all of us Alabamians want to bury our head in our hands and cry out why.

But it's our state and we love it. And hopefully, we can laugh at it when appropriate - such as now.

This is one of those times when it's OK to chuckle.

Olivet Nazarene University recently ranked each state's dumbest law and Alabama's is a doozy. According to the university, it's illegal to wear a fake mustache in Alabama for the purpose of causing laughter in church. (I guess it's OK to wear a fake mustache as long as you don't want to make someone laugh, something that appears to be a rather large loophole.)

Now, as the appropriately named lawyers.com points out, police aren't actually going around enforcing either the validity of one's mustache or the wearer's intent. And, as Al.com' s Kelly Kazek noted, it's almost impossible to actually prove the origin of such crazy laws but they are at least good for a laugh.

Alabama's not the only state with dumb laws. We're not even the only state with dumb laws related to church attendance. It's illegal in Rehoboth, Delaware to whisper in church. You are not supposed to eat peanuts while attending religious services in Boston. And, supposedly, it's against the law to kill a housefly within 160 feet of a church in Ohio unless you have a license.

See - doesn't have make us all feel better?

Welcome to Tuesday's Wake Up Call. Let's get going:

Niagara Falls may be turned off

Niagara Falls could be out of commission within three years as officials work to replace two 115-year-old stone bridges at the park's New York side. The bridges are used to provide pedestrian access to Goat Island.

The falls would be essentially shut off on the American side by diverting the upper Niagara River to the Horseshoe Falls in Canada.

If it happens, it wouldn't be the first time Niagara has been shut off. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers diverted water in 1969 to allow scientists to study the effects of erosion at the base of the falls.

Donald Rumsfeld launches app

Yes, you read that correctly.

Former Secretary of Defense and White House Chief of Staff Donald Rumsfeld has released a gaming app. The game is called Churchill Solitaire and it's modeled after a World War II diversion created by former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill.

Churchill played the game with a young man named Andre de Staercke. Staecke later became a NATO diplomat and taught the game to Rumsfeld. The game is played with two decks of cards, 10 rows and an extra end game called "Devil's Six." The app is free.

Doomsday announcement coming

Maybe it's fitting that the upcoming announcement about the time on the Doomsday Clock is coming from a city that's digging out from a record-setting blizzard.

Members of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists are set to gather in Washington, D.C. Tuesday to announce whether the minute hand on the "clock" will be adjusted. The announcement will be broadcast live starting at 12:30 p.m. CST. The clock is a symbolic representation of man's vulnerability to disaster via nuclear weapons, global warming and aggression.

Last year's clock moved up two minutes, from five to three minutes to midnight. That's the closest it has been to doomsday - or midnight - since the early days of the Cold War.

Trump may dump next GOP debate

U.S. Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump said he may skip the next GOP debate.

The debate, set for Thursday night on Fox, will be moderated by Megyn Kelly. Trump and Kelly had a series of run-ins at the last Fox debate and the businessman turned politician said he has questions about her objectivity.

"I want to do the debates, they're good for me, but I don't think (Kelly) can treat me fairly and I'm not a big fan of hers. Maybe I know too much about her," he said.

Thursday's debate is the last one before the Feb. 1 Iowa caucuses.

Until tomorrow.
