Just for fun!

These are some of my foolish doubts.

* Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard when he lives in the jungle without the razor?

* Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?

* Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they they know there is not enough?

* Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars but check when you say the paint is wet?

* What is the speed of darkness?

* Why is it that people say they 'slept like a baby' when babies wake up every two hours?

* If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?

* Do married people live longer than single ones or does it only seem longer?

* Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground? Did you ever stop and wonder.........

* Why do toasters always have a setting so high that could burn the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

* Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer?

* Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time but don't point to their rear when they ask where the rest room is?

* If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?

* If corn oil is made of corn and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from?

* If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

* Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?

* Did you ever notice that when you blow on to a dog's face, he gets mad at you but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out of the window?

* Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster?

    *              *                *

What an answer?

Dr S Radhakrishnan while speaking....one of his students raised a question. "Sir, what's the difference between a Station Master and a School Master?"

All were very eagerly waiting for his answer because they thought it was an irrelevant question to him but he coolly replied.......

"The Station Master, "Minds the Train" and a School Master, "Trains the Mind".


Tailpiece.

Got up at 6, the chores and was ready by a quarter to 10. The monthly grocery was ordered by Lekha on the department store, nearby and the delivery boy brought the stuff an hour later.
