Some Amusing Observations (well I thought they were)

Only in America .....do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

Only in America ......do they leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put useless junk in the garage.

Only in America ..........do they put hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight..

Only in America .....do they have drive-up ATM machines that have Braille lettering.

 

Ever Wonder ...

Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

Why don't you ever see the headline 'Psychic Wins Lottery'?

Why is 'abbreviated' such a long word?

Why is it that doctors call what they do 'practice'?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavour, and dish washing liquid made with real lemons?

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

Why isn't there mouse-flavoured cat food?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

You know that indestructible black box that is used on aeroplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?
