1. Why are the Florida keys called “KEYS”? Are they key-shaped? Do they contain ways to access secret treasure? Why? What?
2. Why is marijuana sometimes called “Pot”? Did someone once grow it in a pot? Did some high person forget how to pronounce “marijuana”, and happened to be looking at a flower pot instead, and decided to say that name instead?
3. If microwave radiation is really all that dangerous, why aren’t we all dead now? I remember back in the 70′s when microwave ovens became popular, my parents warned me to stay back from the microwave when it was cooking something. They’d heard about the “dangers” of its radiation, and I suppose they worried that one day I’d wake up with three arms and four ears.
4. How on earth can cats possibly stand to lick their own butts?

First, the anti-spam word from me to send this comment is FART. I thought of meloncutter immediately. Okay, it made me laugh.
Dogs do a pretty good job of licking their butts as well. I don’t know, but it’s the only way that baby is going to get cleaned up. Bwahahahah.
Have a great MM and a very Happy New Year. Going to go type fart now.

Posted 31 Dec 2007 at 5:03 pm ¶I just asked Mr Tucker about the licking thing. He stopped for a moment and stared at me. Then he continued with the licking.
So there’s your answer…there is NO answer.
Happy MM and best wishes for an enlightening 2008!

There’s a whole new marketing niche that’s just waiting to be realized… pet toilet paper!
I don’t know if big dogs do this, but I’ve seen more than one small dog decide that his/her rear needed a good scratch. The dog does this by plopping said rear on the carpet and dragging his/her body along with the front feet. It’s a good reason to get a cat, I think. Or a good reason I need a carpet shampoo thingamajig.
