I wonder

1. Why do old men pull their pants all the way up to their waists?
2. Why do we close our eyes when we laugh or sneeze?
3. Why do people put stuffed animals on the dashboard or backseat of their cars?
4. Why do men’s and women’s shirts have buttons on the opposite sides?
5. Why are tampon commercials so dang cheerful?
6. Why didn’t anyone share some Trix cereal with the Silly Rabbit?
7. Are baby carrots cut from regular sized carrots and shaped or are they carrots that never grew up?
8. Why starve a fever and feed a cold?
9. Why am I not supposed to cry over spilled milk?

1. Why do old men pull their pants all the way up to their waists? A- International symbol for, "No, I gave up on the viagra."
2. Why do we close our eyes when we laugh or sneeze? A- Because bungee eyes aren't pleasant.
3. Why do people put stuffed animals on the dashboard or backseat of their cars? A- Because that way they can be immature without social stigma.
4. Why do men’s and women’s shirts have buttons on the opposite sides? A- Opposite sides? Really? uhhh....
5. Why are tampon commercials so dang cheerful? A- To help you "have a great period", whatever that is.
6. Why didn’t anyone share some Trix cereal with the Silly Rabbit? A- Years ago, we did. They had a vote on the back of the boxes, and kids overwhelmingly voted for the rabbit. True story! He ate it all in one shot and never got any more. PETA stepped in and said that it was unhealthy for him, but I wonder how many little kids gave trix to their pet rabbits or left a bowl outside anyway.
7. Are baby carrots cut from regular sized carrots and shaped or are they carrots that never grew up? A- Who cares? Carrots suck!
8. Why starve a fever and feed a cold? A- In my case, probably feed a coold because that way you have something in your stomach besides snot and don't get so nauseous.
9. Why am I not supposed to cry over spilled milk?
A- Because the cows will always make more. And it's 7 years bad luck, just like with the mirror.


Glad I could "help"!

LOL...some good stuff here.
As for "me"?

1- I don't ever pull them up THAT far...but I DO know where MY waist is (as opposed to those living around us who belioeve it's somewhere parallel to one's MID-THIGH.

2- Because it's a LOT easier than trying to keep your eyes open?

3- I don't do either of those. My Garfield is buckled in nicely on the BACK SEAT.

4- I will NEVER Know that one.

5- Dunno...Wifey isn't into the whole "cheerful" thing on that one, believe you me.

6- I always thought that was DISCRIMNATION, but the ACLU never opened their pieholes.
And yes We voted to GIVE the rabbit some TRIX. Just last week, I heard he bought the company (back in the late 70s), sold his stock options (several times over) and is now living the good life in a hutch on the Cayman Islands.

7- My guess is micro-managed plants from dwarven farmers?

8- I'm with Chris here...swallowed mucus is not a complete meal...just an "entree", and feeding a fever would be like tossing another log on a wildfire.

9- Depends on what you consider a "spill".
-If it dribbles down the glass and forms at the bottom...NO.
-If you drop the jug & it winds up all over the floor...NO.
That's more a splash than a spill, and wasting a GALLON is worth crying over...no matter WHAT the liquid is.

Thanks for the funny.

Stay safe down there.
