Now these are the questions that we all should be asking. Reading that post I found myself saying "oooh yeaaaah" several times. Thanks for reminding me that sometimes it's a good idea to take a look around at what we are all have been conditioned to do.
Great post!

It's all very interesting..

I've always asked a lot of questions!! :)
Hey, I never thought about that. Why DOESN'T Tarzan have a beard!?
I've never understood the whole charging ridiculous amounts of money for insufficient funds. Somehow I think the banks have us over a barrel on that one!
Great questions worth contemplating on a lazy summer day!

All great observations, and I have wondered some of these same things......:)
As to alphabet soup. It is the same as with scrabble, I never got enough letters to spell anything worth spelling. haha
and i have wondered who ate the first raw oyster. imagine opening one and saying, well this looks like something that fell out of an ox's nose, i think i'll eat it....
smiles, bee
haha..I do so many of these things....predd on the remote harder when the battery is low!!! I have seen people push the elvator button a bunch of times....lol.....too much!
lol I had these in an email some time back, but they still made me chuckle! :-D
Now I am going to spend the evening asking myself WHY?
"Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?"
That's my favorite one! Loved this post - really gave me a well-needed laugh.
ehm...Tough questions...but Aunty Lucy has an answer on why doesn't Tarzan have a beard-- the beard was tangled between the tree when he sway from one tree to another! :)
