Shoes on the side of the road don't bother me, it's How on Earth do people loose their Underwear on the side of the road. Didn't you notice you didn't put it back on,pull it up or whatever? Any it's always men's underwear. What's up with that?

I wonder what my little grandson, who is almost 19 mths old, thinks. Does his little mind say words like ours do? He only says Mommy, Dada, Papaw and Mamaw. He does have his own launguage that I ofter wonder what is saying. And does he think his mamaw is the silliest person in his world? LOL!!

I'm so glad that some of you have shared shoe stories! I figured I'd breathe a little easier until...

Suzan, did you HAVE to mention the underwear thing? Oh I really shouldn't visit this board just before bedtime! It won't be *sweet* dreams tonight, I fear...

Oh... and the missing socks issue... it's worst with little kids' socks. I always bought three identical pairs for my kids.

Check out the socks here, though:

She's onto something good, selling kids' socks in 3's and baby socks in sets of 5!

I have often wondered how do the wild animals know to fear us.

LOL.... some of these i've wondered about too

Went on a trip across the desert, wind blowing, paper flying, then we arrived with the used paper on the bumper, now that was yuk.... couldn't they have buried it. gross and funny at the same time... never would have thunk it!!

How do things you saw just the other day (or 6 mo ago) go missing, and you know you didn't use it?

Why is it that you keep that blasted sock for months waiting for its partner and then after you use it for a duster or a rag the other one shows up?

Whenever I lose something, what ever it is, I can NOT find it until I replace it, no matter how long or short the wait. Or how come I can't see what I am looking for until I ask someone to help me? Then, as soon as that person has gotten up from what they are doing, pop, there it is!

What I would like to know is why the men in my family can't ever find anything. I always have to find it for them.

I have always wondered where common sense has gone in most people these days. Years ago, there was alot of it around....now? People just dont think of the consequences for their actions.

I think it is a genetic thing. Same thing happens around here!!!
