Only In America:
---------
do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
---------
do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
---------
do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
---------
do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
---------
do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
---------
do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EVER WONDER ...
---------
Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens
our skin?
---------
Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed?
---------
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 flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?
---------
Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
---------
Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
---------
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
---------
Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?
---------
Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?!
---------
Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?
---------
Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?
---------
If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?
---------
If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?
