Stuff I wonder about (Part 2):

* If you*re attacked by the Energizer Bunny, is he charged with battery?

* What if you stop to think and forget to start again?

* Why do we put suits in a garment bag, and garments in a suitcase?

*Why doesn*t glue stick to the inside of the bottle?

* Who was Allen, and why did he have so many wrenches?

* Where exactly is the middle of nowhere?

* Where does your lap go when you stand up?

An old lady with a cane was walking past a young man singing *21 today, 21 today.* The young man says, *You*re not 21, you old bat.* She turns to him and with a mighty swing cracks him over the head with her cane and walks away singing *22 today, 22 today.*

Boy: Dad, I want to get married

Dad: First say sorry

Boy: For what?

Dad: Say sorry

Boy: But for what? What have I done?

Dad: You say sorry first

Boy: But....What*s my fault?

Dad: You first say sorry

Boy:  But why???

Dad: You first say sorry

Boy: Please, at least tell me a reason!

Dad: You first say sorry

Boy: Ok Dad, I am sorry!

Dad: Now you are ready. Your

training is complete. When you learn to say sorry without any reason, you are prepared to marry.

A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles. The sale girl sees him and asks if she can help. He says that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife. She directs him down the correct aisle. A few minutes later he brings a huge bag of cotton balls and a roll of string to the counter. The girl says *Sir, I thought you were looking for abox tampons for your wife.* He answered, *You see, it*s like this. Yesterday I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes. She returns some time later with a tin of tobacco and rolling papers because it is sooooo much cheaper. So I figure if I have to roll my own, so does she.*
