Why Is It That...

Post by Cheval »

Why is it that... putting a baby in the arms of a genius
will make the genius talk like a baby?

Why is it that... we drive on a parkway, but park in a driveway?

Next...
Have you hugged your arghule today?

Why is it that my nose runs and my feet smell?

And does anyone really understand the lyrics of that song, Wee are the Whirled

Wee are the whirled
Wee are the chilled wren...

Seriously. Does it make any sense at all?

Why is it that everyone loves to sing "Louie, Louie",
but nobody really understands the words?

Why is it that when you get a song stuck in your head it's usually something crappy like "We Built This City"?

Why is it that the songs that stick in my head are things like "I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts" and "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy"?

Why is it that even though you council someone not to get drunk on wine you find yourself doing it....?

Why is it that your wife checks her E-mail 15-20 times a day, but calls you a geek for using Kevins Watch?

What is it about cats that allows them to land on their feet?

What is it about buttered toast that causes it to land buttered side down when dropped?

Could one then create a perpetual motion machine by strapping a piece of toast buttered side up to the back of a cat?

Why is it that people say "I could care less" when it's obvious they couldn't care less?

Why is it that Pro and Con are opposites,
but our goverment thinks that
PROgress goes hand in hand with CONgress!
