Premium Member Asking My Granddaughter About Her Major in College
I do not have a smidgeon of an idea Speaker is my teenage granddaughter Rhea I thought you were a senior in college, I say. She nods her head, agreeing straight away. Don’t you have to declare a major before senior year? If I knew you would hound me, I would not have come here. Seriously, Rhea, what is your major?...

Oh, you were asking yourself too?
Now, when one of you asks questions, I observe what is on the desk, if there is something left already from someone else. Slowly I grabbed my book intentionally, but still looked in deeply. Smile? I didn't feel like it. What was there to smile for? Suddenly you said:"It's alright, he can have mine", while smiling. Now I understood why...

Zebras are they black and white or white and black? Why do camels have a humps on their back? Why are bush babies eyes open wide? Why do lions live in a pride? Why do Elephants have long trunks but short tails? Why is there a blow hole on top of whales? Why doesn't a snakes blink? Why does a skunk have...

Premium Member Asking Me For Directions
Where is the twisted human club? I did not know, so here’s the rub…. I saw them crammed in a cranny down the street. Their petootsies were showing, it was not sweet. Now when people ask I send them there. But they left years ago, without a care. I still like giving them a wild goose chase. Serves them right for asking...

Golf Stone Stops Asking Why
Gold stone has learnt to stop asking why Many things just stared him in the eye: Simply means he should not in bed lie Or cock’s crow at dawn dismiss as lie, Soon leave his room taking along his tie And only after success face pie… Right now, a new business game to hatch, Age-old ideas and new ones to match, Ignore for...

I Keep Asking Why
I think the universe is all random There is no reason No reason for anything Things happen People live People die They fall in love Or they don’t They suffer pain Or they live care free A philosopher once said Find a house where there Has been no pain No heartache And you will know The meaning of life But such a house Does not exist...
