Three million clichés and counting

Questions to Ponder
(Curious Jones)

From the Mysteries-Of-The-Universe Dept.

~ Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand?
~ If a word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know?
~ If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he find the words?
~ Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?
~ Why do "slow down" and "slow up" mean the same thing?
~ Why do "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing?
~ Why do "tug" boats push their barges?
~ Why do we sing, "Take me out to the ball game," when we are already there?
~ Why are they called "stands" when they are made for sitting?
~ Why is it called "after dark" when it really is "after light"?
~ Doesn't "expecting the unexpected" make the unexpected expected?
