Tom's Head Scatchers

there are mysteries abundant in our universe... but some, at least to me, defy any rationale... why do people feel compelled to have cell phones surgically attached to their ears... and be oblivious of who they are with or their surroundings... regardless of how awe-inspiring nature has strained to tempt them? I have seen , in Manhattan, not too long ago, a sight that would have called for "the men in the white coats" more than one couple walking the streets together one in a business suit one in a smart work dress BOTH talking on seperate cell phones! Both complimenting their wardrobe with ratty sneakers!!! how'd I get on this planet? did I miss something? a decade or two? why do we walk around with advertisement T-shirts? not like we're getting paid for it... or Fedex- apparently Fed's ex has won a big settlement- she owns trucks all over the place... would would possibly watch imfomercials? not even in the hightest level psych wards so why spend millions to produce and air them? go on a vacation! please feel free to jump in and add your thoughts on human oddities as you see them... later......tom
