Things to Ponder


  1. Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand?

  2. Why are a 'wise man' and a 'wise guy'opposites?

  3. Why is it called "after dark" when it really is "after light"?

  4. If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay you to do it?

  5. Why do we wash bath towels? Aren't we clean when we use them?

  6. Why do 'tug' boats push their barges?

  7. If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he find the words?

  8. If all the world is a stage, where is the audience sitting?

  9. Why do you press harder on the buttons of a remote control when you know the batteries are dead?

  10. Why do we sing "Take me out to the ball game" when we are already there?

  11. How come abbreviated is such a long word?

  12. Why is phonics not spelled the way it sounds?
