Today is election day and someone asked WHY we have elections in November.
The answer, of course, is because that’s the season we pick out turkeys.
Here are a few more questions this election day:
1. Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand?
2. Why do we say something is out of whack? What exactly is a ‘whack’?
3. Why is it called “after dark” when it really is “after light”?
4. Why is “phonics” not spelled the way it sounds?
5. How can opposites (like “slow down”/”slow up”, or “fat chance”/”slim
chance”) mean the same thing?
6. If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay you to do it?
7. If all the world is a stage, where is the audience sitting?
8. Why do you press harder on the buttons of a remote control when you know
the batteries are dead?
9. Why do they call it a TV set when you only have one?
10. Other than Christmas, what other time of the year do you sit in front of
a dead tree and eat candy out of your socks?
