Why .....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.
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 dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Why .....do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
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 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 flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?
Why? Good question.

Unknown Dear Nick
Once again, you have bowled me over because you could relate this post with my hidden motive to make readers think beyond what they see and take for granted.
And the best part is - you did not know that was my objective.
More importantly,you have asked very pertinent questions that should move as many Malaysians to make that difference in the next polls.
Thanks, Nick, for being a thinking and caring Malaysian. Take care and have a great day!
Salam

Unknown Hello Sis,
Ha ha these are interesting facts, very applicable to New York City, where there are a lot of ironies which to this day i still cannot fathom after living here for close to 9 years.

nick Hi Sis,
So good to have the mysteries of life be presented in such witty questions. I bet that if those questions can be answered satisfactorily, we'll understand the secrets of the universe, life and why hot dog buns comes in packs of 12 whereas the sausages comes in packs of 10.
But the ultimate question for me would be "Why did Malaysian let a doctor "practice" his dictatorship for 22 years and later reward him with 'TUN' for doing a great job at that?". (We are not suppose to reward a dictator for being the great dictator in history, do we?) BTW does Malaysian realized that the Malaysian Govt is a great friend (bosom friend)to the late, Great Chilean Dictator, Gen Augusto Pinochet? Says much about our govt, Ya?
Have a wonderful day Sis.
Hamba.
May GOD bless all Malaysian.
