JUST WONDERING
Humor by Taliesin the Bard


When I connect to the internet an on-screen message tells me: "Connection completed successfully". I'm just wondering, does this mean that the connection could somehow be completed unsuccessfully? A simple Connection Successful or Connection Completed would suffice would it not? 

And while we're on the subject, shouldn't that express check out sign read Ten Items or Fewer not Ten Items or Less?

I'm just wondering, would Polly Amory be a better name for a porn star or a stripper?

I've been thinking about getting into real estate. I thought maybe I'd do something for my fellow writers. Perhaps set up a series of apartments in a section of Los Angeles just for them. Just wondering if I should call it the Writer's Block?

Of course there are also the hard-working police and detectives who do so much for us. I was just wondering what happens to them when they retire. I thought maybe a retirement facility for them would be a good investment. Maybe call the place Sherlock Homes?

On the TV game show Who Wants to be a Millionaire? contestants usually have a friend or family member in the audience. They also have five phone-a-friend lifelines, one of whom they can call if needed. Arenât these contestants saying to their friends/family members in the audience, I like you but youâre just too stupid to be one of my lifelines? 

Just wondering....
