Why Is It ...

… that I eat salad every day. Bean salad. Coffee Bean Salad … Coffee. I drink coffee every day.

… that when I think of donating my body to science I tend to think science will donate my body to Goodwill.

… that deep down I want to touch an electric fence to see if it really works.

… that what people don’t know about me is that I will find out; I’m a Findoutologist; I got a PHD in Findoutology.

… that I love people who ask if they can call me, and smile when I say, ‘No, you can’t but thanks for asking.’

… that people assume I’m home just because they see me on my front porch.

… that at the movies last week a security guard told me I couldn’t bring in outside food. Has he never heard of a service burrito?

… that I won’t wait for the tables to turn when I can easily hurl a chair.

… that some days I go to work and make my coworkers wonder what is wrong with me, and then I clock out.

  1. I liked the service burrito. Oh, take it from someone who's had experience, electric fences work.

  7. Oh, Bob, sometimes I want to hug you. You know me so well. The electric fence, the front porch, and, especially, hurling a chair.

    We had an electric fence once and
    13-yr-old boys loved to dare each
    other to run up and touch it (one
    of them was eldest). Fence came
    down.

    I, too, am a Findoutologist! If there is something I wanna know, I will drill down to the 7th level of internet hell to locate it. Woe be to you if you were the one who asked me to search. You will receive the results...in abundance!! 👹

    1. I am a huge fan of the fifteen second google search so don't try and hide anything from me.

  10. Ha! I laughed about the front porch! This is why we keep the lights off in the front of the house. :)

  11. Surely, there cannot me any more "Why Is It?" questions left in the tank! You must have drained it dry by now. However, I know you are going to prove me wrong.

  12. I only have a master's in Findoutology so if I can't find out something, I might have to request your assistance.

    Love,

  13. Given the context and with an Australian accent, we would need to take care at enunciating 'can't' in, ‘No, you can’t but thanks for asking.’

  14. As someone who grew up on a grain farm, I can assure you that an electrical fence does indeed cause a shock. Not that we had those fences but the neighbours with cattle did...and I was dumb enough to check it out. (I left the licking a frozen metal pole to my younger sister).
