Thoughts for the day

Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety-one?

If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea.....
does that mean that one out of five enjoys it?

If people from Poland are called Poles,

               then why aren't people from Holland 

 called Holes?

If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?

Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist, but a person who drives a racecar is not called a racist?

If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?   

If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked,
then doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed? 

Do Lipton Tea employees take 'coffee breaks?'

 

I  thought about how mothers feed their babies with tiny little spoons and forks, so I wondered what do Chinese mothers use. Toothpicks?

Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do, write to them?
Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps? That way we all get a good look.

Is it true that you never really learn to swear until you learn to drive?

If a cow laughed, would milk come out of her nose?

 Thank you Maxine, I have not heard from you for a while and now I have some thoughts to ponder

Eagerly awaiting your next email (when you get around to it.)
