Have u ever thought how u use English ? Certainly in a very very ridiculus way. But u can't see any way .Anyway, don't tell if English is such crazy why don't u take it to a mental hospital .Ok , Let's face it---"English is a crazy language"---

There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.

English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France.

Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.

We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?

If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend, that you comb through annals of history but not a single annal? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?

If teachers taught, why didn't preacher praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? If you wrote a letter, perhaps you bote your tongue?

Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? Park on driveways and drive on parkways? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another.

Have you noticed that we talk about certain things only when they are absent? Have you ever seen a horseful carriage or a strapful gown? Met a sung hero or experienced requited love? Have you ever run into someone who was combobulated, gruntled, ruly or peccable?

And where are all those people who ARE spring chickens or who would ACTUALLY hurt a fly?

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm clock goes off by going on.

English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which, of course, isn't a race at all). That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up this essay, I end it.

A Very Hungry Blonde!



A blonde walks into a library, walks up to the front desk and says to the librarian:

"I'll have a cheeseburger, fries and a large coke, please."

The librarian is stunned and stares blankly back at the blonde, but the blonde thinks that the elderly librarian must be hard of hearing and repeats her request in a loud voice:

"I'LL HAVE A CHEESEBURGER, FRIES AND A LARGE COKE!"

"Miss, I'm sorry but this is a library" informs the librarian.

"Oh, I'm sorry." whispers the blonde, and continues in a very soft voice:

"I'll have a cheeseburger, fries, and a large coke."

A tornado hit a farmhouse just before dawn. It lifted the roof off, picked
up the beds on which the farmer and his wife slept, and set them down gently
in the next county. The wife began to cry. "Don't be scared, Susan," her husband
said. "We are not hurt." Susan continued to cry. "I'm not scared," she said
between sobs. "I'm happy 'cause this is the first time in 15 years we've been
out together.

A Sunday school teacher asked the children in her class, "If I sold
my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the
church, would I get into Heaven?" "No!" the children all answered.
"If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything
neat and tidy, would I get into Heaven?" Again the answer was "No!"
"Well", she continued, "then how can I get into Heaven?"A five-year-old
boy shouted out, "You gotta be dead!"

John received a free ticket to the Super Bowl. Unfortunately. John's seat was
in
the last row in the corner of the stadium. He was closer to the Goodyear Blimp
than
the stadium. He noticed an empty seat 10 rows up from the 50-yard line. He
decides
to make his way to the empty seat. As he sits down he asks the men next to him
if
anyone is sitting there. The man told him no, it was empty. John is very excited
to
have a seat like this at a Super Bowl and asks why in the world no one is using
it?
The man replied that it was his wife's seat but she passed away. He said this
was the
first Super Bowl that they have not attended together since they were married
in 1968.
John said that it was really sad and asked if he couldn't find someone, a
relative or
a close friend to take the seat? "No" replied the man, "They're at her funeral!"

To Feel Like A Woman!



On a Trans-Atlantic flight, a plane passes through a severe storm.

The turbulence is awful, and things go from bad to worse when one wing is struck by lightning. One woman in particular loses it. Screaming, she stands up in the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die!" she wails.

Then she yells, "Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on Earth to be memorable! I've had plenty of relationships in my life, but no one has ever made me really feel like a woman! Well I've had it! Is there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN?"

For a moment there is silence. Everyone has forgotten their own peril, and they all stare, riveted, at the desperate woman in the front of the plane.

Then, a man stands up in the rear of the plane. "I can make you feel like a woman," he says.

He's gorgeous. Tall, built, with flowing black hair and jet black eyes, he starts to walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time. No one moves.

The woman is breathing heavily in anticipation as the strange man approaches. He removes his shirt.

Muscles ripple across his chest as he reaches her, and extends the arm holding his shirt to the trembling woman, and whispers:

"Iron this."

The Hot Mama Machine


An Amish boy and his father were visiting a mall. They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that could move.

"Father?" asked the boy.

The father (never having seen an elevator) responded, "Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life. I don't know what it is."

While the boy and his father were watching wide-eyed, an old lady in a wheelchair rolled up to the moving walls and pressed a button. The walls opened and the lady rolled between them and into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched small circles of light with numbers above the wall light up. They continued to watch the circles light up in the reverse direction. The walls opened up again and a beautiful 24-year-old woman stepped out.

The father said to his son, "Go get your mother!"

The Least He Could Do



A golfer and his buddies were playing a big round of golf for $200. At the eighteenth green the golfer had a ten foot putt to win the round, and the $200.

As he was lining up his putt, a funeral procession started to pass by. The golfer set down his putter, took off his hat, placed it over his chest, and waited for the funeral procession to pass. After it passed, he picked up his putter and returned to lining up his putt.

One of his buddies said, "That was the most touching thing I have ever seen. I can't believe you stopped playing, possibly losing your concentration, to pay your respects."

The golfer turned to him and said, "Well, it was the least I could do. We were married for 45 years!"

A Five Dollar Good Time


A man is walking around New York with his wife. They find a perfume shop, the wife goes in, and he waits outside.

A hooker comes along and says to him, "Like to come home with me, buddy?"

"For how much?" asks the man.

"One hundred dollars."

"I'll give you five bucks."

The girl spits at him and walks away.

A little later, the man's wife comes out of the shop and they continue their walk. On the first corner they come to there is the same hooker.

She takes one look at the man and his wife and says, "You see? You see what you get for five bucks?"

Once upon a time, a beautiful, independent, self-assured princess
happened upon a frog in a pond. The frog said to the princess, " I once
was a handsome prince until an evil witch put a spell on me. One kiss
from you and I will turn back into a prince and then we can marry, move
into the castle with my mom and you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes,
bear my children and forever feel happy doing so." That night, while the
princess dined on frog legs,she kept laughing and saying, "I don't THINK so."
