Why …
…do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are going dead?
… do we, in winter, try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?
…do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough money?
…does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars in the sky, but check when you say the paint is wet?
… do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?
… doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
… do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
… is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?
… is there never a day that mattresses are not on sale?
… is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?
… if people evolved from apes are there still apes
… do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized
… do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance
… don't you ever hear father-in-law jokes
… do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt
