Why, Why, Why ?
Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is not enough?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Whose idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why 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?

Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

And my FAVORITE......
The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

I think it's just state or federal law that has them do that... like anything even lethal injections must be sanitary... I mean think of it.. they do the same thing to animals before they put them down. Or maybe it's to make it more sanitary for the person doing the injecting.

that makes sense.

I can't stand needles, I had to have a blood test before surgery when I was little, they had trouble finding a vein...at one point my arm was so numb

I couldn't feel anything. :s_crazy:

LOL be glad you can't get pregnant! I've never been afraid of needles.. I mean heck I bead, sew, have tatoos and half my piercings are from needles.. but I felt like a pincushion when I was pregnant between blood tests and diabetes.

The old Alabama-bred, Korean War vet small-animal veterinarian Dr Joe Hagan that I worked for as a teen said that an alcohol swab before an injection for sterilzation purposes was like SO bogus. Supposedly it takes like 45 minutes immersed in rubbing alcohol to sterlize anything of germs. So actually, an alcohol swab immediately before an injection simply puts the germs into solution, making it MORE likely for any germs upon the skin's surface to enter the blood stream ...

eek!

Heck, when we inject medication into a horse's jugular vein, we often wet the hair on the neck with a little water, so as to make it lay down smooth and we can see the vein better ... and i am sure that puts the skin and hair's surface germs into solution also! LOL Besides, that water is from most often from a nearby water bucket in the stall !!! Or spit works, too ...

double eek !!!

Just thought you would like to know ...

ROFL
