Ever wonder why ....
- drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front?
- do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke?
- do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'?
- do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering?
- the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?
- don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?
- is "abbreviated" such a long word?
- is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?
- isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
- didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?
- do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?
- are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?
- if con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?

Walgreens still sells them here, but they make you show ID. I'm 47 years old for pete's sake.
Yes I have wondered why they have brail on ATM machines!
