My thanks to my friend Sherri who sent this to me a while ago.

EVER WONDER WHY.................

drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes and candy at the front?

people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke?

banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters?

we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage?

we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight?

we use the word 'politics' to describe the process of governing our freedom? ('Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures')

drive-up ATM machines include Braille lettering?

the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

"abbreviated" is such a long word?

doctors call what they do "practice"?

lemon juice is made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid is made with real lemon juice?

the person who invests all your money called a broker?

the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?

they don't make the whole plane out of the stuff they use to make the indestructible black box?

sheep don't shrink when it rains?

they are called 'apartments' when they are all stuck together?

they call the airport the "terminal" if flying is so safe?

And if con is the opposite of pro, do you ever wonder if Congress is the opposite of progress?
