Ponderific!

I realize that my past blogs have not always been cheerful. Some have been downright depressing. Dang, these things even get me down. And I wrote them! So, to brighten everyone up, I have come up (and found online,) some thoughts for you to ponder. NOTE: These are here for entertainment purposes only! I do not want a quadrillion messages on how some of these are wrong, or you have an answer for them. These are rhetorical.

- Why is there an experation date on SOUR cream?
- If 7-11 is open 24/7, 365 days a week, why are there locks on the doors?
- Since bread is square, why is sandwich meat round?
- Why do you have to "put your two cents in"...but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to? Taxes?
- What is the speed of dark?
- If "con" is the opposite of "pro," then what is the opposite of progress?
- How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
- Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?
- Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
- If a cow laughed, would milk come out her nose?
- If knees were backwards, what would chairs look like?
- Why are they called buildings, when they're already finished? Shouldn't they be called builts?
- Why are they called apartments, when they're all stuck together?
- How come abbreviated is such a long word?
- Why do we say something 'is out of whack'? What's a whack?
- Why do we wash bath towels? Aren't we clean when we use them?
- Why are there 5 syllables in the word "monosylabic"?
- What WAS the best thing before sliced bread?
- If it's zero degrees outside today and it's supposed to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold is it going to be?

I have more, pages more in fact, but this blog is already getting really long.

All week, I have been sick. It is awful. It's the type of sickness where you feel bad all over. Yeah, it's the pits. But, on the upside, it leads me into today's Courage Journal. I wanted to stay in bed all day all week. But I had the courage to get out of bed and face school. (Which, face it, you just really don't want to go to.) I think it is courage, but when I am sick, my brain stops functioning. So I will leave this one to you.

If you get to the end of your blog what do you do?
