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

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

Why
Do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Why

Does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Why

Is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

Why

Do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why

Do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

Why

Is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, 'It's all right?' Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, 'That hurt, you stupid ass?'

Why

Is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

And my FAVOURITE...

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

Today's Statistics from MLS for the Greater Greenville Metro Area. Sales have slowed down but in my humble opinion it is because we have people moving here that can't sell there houses elsewhere. These are the number of sales in MLS through November 2008 for the number os sales.

AS I KEEP REPEATING AND YOU MAY BE SICK OF HEARING ME, GREENVILLE IS A FANTASTIC MARKET!! We are selling homes, Interest Rates are phenominal (I had a buyer lock in at 4.5% on a 30 year fixed this week), and the sooner you buy the more equity you build. Our market is not what you hear about on the news!! We are stong and we keep growing!!

Sincerely, Mary

Just in case you need a laugh:
Remember it takes a college degree to fly a plane,
but only a high school
diploma to fix one; a reassurance to those of us who
fly routinely in our
jobs. After every flight, UPS pilots fill out a
form, called a 'gripe sheet,
which tells mechanics about problems with the
aircraft. The mechanics
correct the problems; document their repairs on the
form, and then pilots
review the gripe sheets before the next flight.

Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense
of humor. Here are some
actual maintenance complaints submitted by UPS
pilots (marked with a P) and
the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by
maintenance engineers.

By the way, UPS is the only major airline that has
never, ever, had an
acci dent.

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.
*
P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.
*
P: Something loose in cockpit
S: Something tightened in cockpit
*
P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.
*
P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200
feet per minute descent.
S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.
*
P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.
*
P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
S: DME volume set to more believable level.
*
P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what friction locks are for.
*
P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.
s: IFF always inoper ative in OFF mode.
*
P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.
*
P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search
*
P: Aircraft handles funny. (I love this one!)
S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right and
be serious.
*
P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.
*
P: Mouse in cockpit.
S: Cat installed.
*
And the best one for last
*
P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds
like a midget pounding
on something with a hammer.
S: Took hammer away from midget.
