Things that make you go hmmm.

       Last Friday night heading home after dropping off something at my daughters house I had to fight traffic  all the way home,  during what is widely called Rush Hour. You ever wonder why they called it that aside everyone trying to rush home.  And the key word here is trying, cause during rush hour everyone is on the road and no one is rushing.  If your lucky that average speed will get to maybe 30 to 35 mph.  It has gone as slow as 20 and as high as 55 until you can break free of the congestion and then all hell breaks loose as ppl try to reach 80 plus.

         It is times like this that I really have to wonder why labeling things the way that they do.   I always laugh when I hear a comic reference the difference with naming things.  Such as Parkway and    Driveway, Parkways are roads cars drive on and Driveways are where they park opposites can be funny when they are applied right.  The world is full of totally nonsense phrases, like he wants his cake and eat it too, I always they thought that ones was silly cause if I get cake I am going to eat it what else am I going to do with it.  Oh an then I have this friend who likes to say this phrase and it bugs the crap out of me.  "There is six in one hand and half a doz. in the other".   I mean what does that mean anyway,  the humor side of it is I have 5 fingers on one hand and half of 10 on the other hand.  I guess it can be interperated many different ways for a lot of different scenarios. 

         I am sure there are plenty of those phrases out there that we may use and some we are quite tired of hearing.  So I am going to continue eating my cake cause it was given to me and until ppl are given extra digits on their hand I will stick with my 5 thank you very much.
