      4. Only in America……do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

      5. Only in America……do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

      6. Only in America……do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

      7. Only in America……do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won’t miss a call from someone we didn’t want to talk to in the first place.

      8. Only in America……do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

      11. Only in America……do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway.

      EVER WONDER

      Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

      Why women can’t put on mascara with their mouth closed?

      Why don’t you ever see the headline “Psychic Wins Lottery”?

      Why is “abbreviated” such a long word?

      *Why is it that doctors call what they do “practice”?

      Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

      Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker? <-- --haha. good one! never crossed my mind... Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food? When dog food is new and improved tasting, who tests it? Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes? Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections? You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?? Why don't sheep shrink when it rains? Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together? If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress? If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal? ------------------ In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods: On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. ( who would dry their hair sleeping anyway?) On a bag of Fritos: ..You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. (Be funny to see someone digging thru the bag in the store just to get the details, since no purchase is necessary) On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap." (and that would be how...?) On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost." ( But, it's "just" a suggestion). On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down." (well... a bit late, huh?) On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating." (...noooo... Really?) On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body." (but wouldn't this save me more time?) On Boot's Children Cough Medicine: "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication." (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those forklifts.) On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (isn't that the whole damn purpose? duh...) On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only." (as opposed to... what, maybe internal use....haha?) On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.) On Sunsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (talk about a news flash) On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." (are people really this stupid that they need these kind of directions?) On a child's superman costume: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly." (Oh come on, try it and see if you can fly.....ha.) On a Swedish chainsaw: "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals." (..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

      Hadn’t seen the two first parts before, and some of the “statements” were so hilarious (literally) that I decided I had to “steal” the two bunches to share it with my Favourite American who lives here in Norway – and I give him only the best of what I come across on the Net.

      Thanks, Andrea!
