Snowflake Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I wonder..................... Can you cry under water? How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered? If money doesn't grow on trees then why do banks have branches? Since bread is square, why is sandwich meat round? Why do you have to "put your two cents in"...but it's only a"penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to? Once you're in Heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity? Why does a round pizza come in a square box? What did cured ham actually have? How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage? Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours? If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing? If you drink Pepsi at work in the Coke factory, will they fire you? Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV? Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground? How come we choose from just two people for President and fifty for Miss America? Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They're going to see you naked anyway. If a 911 operator has a heart attack, whom does he/she call? and finally... Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimblanchard Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 The extra penny goes to pay the taxes. Come on. Surely the marginal benefit of the 51st Miss America candidate is greater than the marginal benefit of another clown running for president. The question is not why so many but why so few? And can you imagine how much worse global warming would be if we had more politicians blowing hot air? The key to the tall buildings is perspective. We haven't got much closer to the things higher, but we have gone a long way from the ground. So the moon doesn't look much different, but sidewalk does. And as for the last one, who cares once they are on the floor? Curtis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
