My niece, Amanda, forwarded an email roundabout this week. You have probably seen it. It was called PONDERABLES. Some of the more interesting of the questions believed to be worth pondering were these:
- 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?
- What disease 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 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?
- Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural?
But I couldn't stop smiling as I thought about these two:
- Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out!"
- Why would anybody watch a white thing come out a chicken's behind and think, "That ought to taste good."
Go ahead. Admit it. You know that you have actually pondered these important questions, too.
