Having a Stressful Day?

#1 Postby pojo » Tue Apr 27, 2004 1:07 pm

Here is some thoughts to ponder......

*What are those little things on the end of your shoelaces called?

*If there was a knowledge contest, would the female winner be called Miss Informed?

*Why does breaking a mirror mean seven years of bad luck when seven is a lucky number??

*If you could walk through the walls, wouldn’t you fall through the floor?

*If your named Will and you are in the army do you get worried when people say fire at will?

*What does the T in T-Shirt really mean?

*How can someone be dirt poor, and another be filthy rich?

*When you put 'THE' and 'IRS' together, it forms 'THEIRS'. Coincidence?

*If rabbits' feet are so lucky, then what happened to the rabbit?

*If your plan is having no plan, do you have a plan?

*If anything's possible, then is it possible that nothing's possible?

*Can you get cornered in a round room?

*Why do we wash behind our ears? Who really looks there?

*Why don't the hairs on your arms get split ends?

*If an atheist has to go to court, do they make him swear on the Bible?

*Why is it illegal to park in a handicapped parking space but its ok to use a handicapped toilet?

*In that song, She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain, who is she?

*Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures’?

*Why isn't chocolate considered a vegetable, if chocolate comes from cocoa beans, and all beans are a vegetable?

*Why is it when we talk to God we are praying, but when God talks to us we are put into the loony bin?

*Do sheep get static cling when they rub against one another?

*Do pigs pull ham strings?

*Why do people say heads up when you should duck?

*Why do they call the clock where you punch your time card called a "time" clock? Aren't all clocks "time" clocks?

*If you are born on February 29 of a leap year, when is your birthday?

*Why are things typed up but written down?

*What does OK actually mean?

*what does the K in K-mart actually stand for?

*Why do we say "bye bye" but not "hi hi"?

*Why is it we have the weight of the world on our shoulders but have to get it off our chests?

*Why is the name of the phobia for the fear of long words Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia?

*If someone can't see, they're blind and if someone can't hear, they're deaf, so what do you call people who can't smell? (stopped up!) (lol)

Because of it's T-shape.

Wow, growing up in rural Maryland, we always went to Kresge, then the Kmart came in and put them out of business. We always went there and ate at the Diner that was inside. It brings back great memories 8-)
