"Why?"
If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where
did he find the words?
Why is the third hand on the watch called
the second hand?
If a word is misspelled in the dictionary,
how would we ever know?
Is it good if a vacuum really sucks?
Why do we say something is out of whack?
What is whack?
Why do "slow down" and "slow up" mean the
same thing?
Why do "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean
the same thing?
Why are "wise man" and "wise guy" opposites?
Why do tug boats push their barges?
Why do we sing "Take me out to the ball
game" when we are already there?
Why are they called "stands" when they are
made for sitting?
Why is it called "after dark" when it really
is "after light"?
