    I wonder why computers won't recognize my birthday in forms, etc. Whenever I put in February 29 it tells me it is an invalid date. It is really hard to convince a computer that I really was born on Feb 29 and that the date does exist. Even here in my profiile it keeps changing it to March 1. My DL and BC both say Feb 29 but computers don't seem to get it. Whoever thought of shoving an extra day in the calendar every 4 years ought to be shot. I am sure they never realized what an inconvenience it is to those of us born on that date. Oh and i agree about the thongs. Never could see what my DD saw in them.

    I'd like to know why yawns are contagious also.

    AND, it's always driven me crazy that bathroom faucets are so short that you have to rub your hands against the back of the sink to rinse them. WHY, please?!

    I have always wondered why men repairing a road have one or two people doing the work and five or six guys just standing around watching

    This sounds stupid but..... There is a beginning and an end to everything. So where does the universes end and where do they begin? We are all just floating around in space and so are other universeces but, where does it all end?

    I wonder just HOW hungry was the person who first ate an artichoke?
    "Gee wonder what there is to eat around here? Hmmm, that spikey thing there with all the barbs on the outside sure looks tasty, doesn't it?"

    (I'm glad they did tho', I love 'em!)
