  "FUNNIES"

Ponderisms

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?
If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?
Thanks MG

  Grandmas don't know  everything...

  Little Jacob was staying with his grandmother for a few
  days. He'd been  playing outside with the other kids for a
  while when he came into the house  and asked her,
  'Grandma, what's that called when two people sleep in
  the same  room and one is on top of the other?'

  She was a little taken aback, but she decided to tell him
  the truth.

  'It's called sexual intercourse, darling.'
  Little Jacob said, 'Oh, OK,' and went back outside to play
  with the other  kids.

  A few minutes later he came back in and said angrily,
  'Grandma, it is not  called Sexual Intercourse. It's called
  Bunk Beds. And Jackie's Mom  wants to talk to you.'

  Thanks Rex
