Just something to Thing about

1. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around
several times, does he become disoriented?
2. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't
people from Holland called Holes?
3. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?
4. When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?
5. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a
person who drives a racing car not called a racist?
6. Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?
7. Why do overlook and oversee mean opposite things?
8. Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one?
9. 'I am' is reportedly the shortest sentence in the
English language. Could it be that 'I do' is the
longest sentence?
10. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked,
doesn't it follow that electricians can be
delighted, musicians denoted, owboys deranged,
models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners
depressed?
11. What hair colour do they put on the driver's licences
of bald men?
12. I thought about how mothers feed their babies
with tiny little spoons and forks so I wondered what
do Chinese mothers use? Toothpicks?
13. 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 so
the postmen can look for them while they deliver the mail?
14. You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive.
15. No one ever says, 'It's only a game' when their team is winning.
16. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhoea, does that mean
that one enjoys it?
18. Why if you send something by road in a car, it is called
a shipment, but when you send it by sea in a ship, it is
called cargo?
19. If a convenience store is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,
365 days a year, why are there locks on the door?
