Along the lines of the bus thread:

If you can't drink and drive, why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor, and why do bars have parking lots?

Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio?

Does anyone watch Whose Line Is It Anyway? If so, do you like the segment where the conversation is always in the form of a question?

Why is it when two planes almost hit each other it is called a "near miss"?
Shouldn't it be called a "near hit"?

(Im getting close to the end of the "book"

Why stores have these kind of sales?

Baby Sale ~~ But no babies for sale

Manager Sale ~~ But no Managers for sale

Weekend Sale ~~ But no weekends for sale

Blue Light Special ~~ But won't sell the blue light

OR

Buy three tires, get the fourth one free. What if I only want two tires?

When a Used Car Sales place has a "Tow it, Push it, Drag it in, we will give you $1500 trade in" Sale. And you pay $7000 for for something that was Towed in, Pushed in, or Draged in.

Why do so many people, men and women, use a middle initial? Like, if I sent a purchase to Hillary R. Clinton. Are there so many Hillary's at their house that they need to be sure the right one gets it? I notice this on around 10% of address sent me. Is it really serving a purpose or is it just pretentious? Bugs me!

No! you can't eat a cheese sandwich in the living room, yes, I know I did but I am queen of all I survey. Mom (queen)

WHY??Because it is there Hillary R.
uses her hyphenated name to honor her father.
I use my middle initial because my mom and dad gave it to me and my initials are the same (now that I am married) as my husband's and we like it. No pretention. Plus it does help to separate family members or other relatives that may have the same first name.
Don't be bugged get your own middle initial and join the crowd!!

immykidsmom - I use Linda_K here because there used to be other Linda's posting on these threads. Because they weren't always referred to by their posting name, but rather sometimes called Linda. So when I signed on I added my middle initial to make the distinction.

Friends and relatives also address me as Linda K. Kay was my mothers name and Kay is my middle name. I think it's their way of lovingly remembering my mother for them.

There are many things on the show Gilligan's Island that I can't understand.

Why did the Howells take all that money for a 3 hour tour?

Why did Mary Ann call the pies she made coconut cream when there was no cream on the island. Or did the Howells bring a cow too?

Why did the Skipper always hit Gilligan with his hat? Didn't Gilligan have any backbone to stand up to the Skipper?

Why didn't Ginger run an escort service on the island? Who would be her most likely client?

Why was Gilligan always the one who had to charge the radio battery riding the bike? Shouldn't the Skipper be the one doing this?

These are the questions that really bug me!
