Why do we use the word playboy to describe lecherous old men? "I love the nights I can't remember with the friends I can't forget." "It doesn't matter where you go in life....It's who you have beside you." "Oh my God....my mother was right about everything."

Rep Power: 18727 | Re: Good Quotes Part Deux Just wondering......... If you have sex with a prostitute against her will, is it considered rape or shoplifting? Can you cry under water? How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered? 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? Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity? Why does a round pizza come in a square box? What disease did cured ham actually have? 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? If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing? Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV? Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground? Why do doctors leave the room while you change. They're going to see you naked anyway. Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat? If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him? Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool LANE? If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat? Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs! If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner? If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune? Why did you just try singing the two songs above? Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your Ass ? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window? Do you ever wonder why you gave me your e-mail address in the first place?

Isn't it ironic that a typical government committee will keep minutes and waste hours? Why, when men say they don't understand women, are so many self- help books written by men and targeted at women?

Rep Power: 18727 | Re: Good Quotes Part Deux People want every machine to be perfect, with the exception of the bathroom scale. When we retire from work and time is no longer a matter of urgent importance, our colleagues generally present us with a watch. If you want to stay young, associate with young people; if you want to feel your age, try to match their pace.
The only safe thing to do behind a person's back is to pat it.

Rep Power: 18727 | Re: Good Quotes Part Deux Laughter is the cheapest luxury we have. It stirs up the blood, expands the chest, electrifies the nerves, cleans away the cobwebs from the brain, and gives the whole system a cleansing rehabilitation. A hard thing about business is minding your own. The elevator to success is out of order. You'll have to use the stairs...one step at a time.

Passion: A feeling you feel when you feel a feeling you've never felt before. Set aside half an hour every day to do all your worrying; then take a nap during this period.

Fox News reported rumors Monday that Hillary Clinton was getting a little work done on her face before the convention. It's quite unnecessary. If she wants to have surgery to help her get elected president, it's going to have to be a sex change.
