DO YOU 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 the man who invests all your money is called a broker?
Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
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?

you know what's funny , Akram ?
I started thinking seriously and wondering about some of the facts I laughed at! :)
for instance , the aeroplane , why not made of the same material as the black box? so I asked around , and an aviation engineer told me that its a very heavy material , if they make the plane of it , the plane will never be able to fly !! :)

i thought about the same thing regarding the black box,
but my thinking went to that, may be they made it with very expensive material.
but,
thanks for the information,
another wondering,
why do we speak loud in the telephone or the cellphone, when the call is from outsidehe country.

yeah , you are right , that too .. its very expensive .
about the calls ,probably because our subconcious is programmed long before phones were available , that the longer the distance , the louder you need to talk for the other person to hear you ..
or may be because we think the phone company guy who is delivering the information is half deaf !! lol ..
