Why .....do Tesco's 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.

Why .....do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

Why ....do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

Why .......do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

Why .. ......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 flavour, 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-flavoured 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 planes? 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 flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

Why? Good question.

Water Leak Problem

Thanks to Paul S.

Jennifer and Jim kept getting huge water bills. They knew beyond a doubt

that the bills weren't representative of their actual usage. But no matter

how they tried to conserve, the high bills continued. Although they could

see nothing wrong, they had everything checked for leaks or problems: first

the water meter, then outdoor pipes, indoor pipes, underground pipes,

faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker, etc. -- all to no avail!

One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed, but kept hearing water running

downstairs. He finally tore himself from his sick bed to investigate, and

stumbled onto the cause of such high water bills. Apparently this was

happening all day long when they were not at home. Knowing that few would

believe him, he taped a segment of the 'problem' for posterity..

Now watch video.

For Animal Lovers

Thanks to Paul S.

After losing his parents, this 3 year old orang-utan was so depressed he wouldn't eat and didn't respond to any medical treatments. The veterinarians thought he would surely die from sadness. The zoo keepers found an old sick dog on the grounds in the park at the zoo where the orang utan lived and took the dog to the animal treatment center. The dog arrived at the same time the orang-utan was there being treated. The 2 lost souls met and have been inseparable ever since.

The orang-utan found a new reason to live and each always tries his best to be a good companion to his new found friend. They are together 24 hours a day in all their activities.

They live in Northern California where swimming is their favorite past time, although Roscoe (the orangutan) is a little

afraid of the water and needs his friend's help to swim.

Together they have discovered the joy and laughter in life and the value of friendship.

They have found more than a friendly shoulder to lean on.

Long Live Friendship!!!!!!!
