       assassinated instead of just murdered?

17.  Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane?

18.  If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a
       coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?

19.  Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours?
       . . . They're both dogs!*


 20.  If Wile I. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why
        didn't he just buy dinner?

        vegetables, what is baby oil made from?

 22.  If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

         tune?

24.  Why did you just try singing the two songs above?

25.  Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere,
       but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt?

Bumper - Great list and I had no problem wondering why I took the time to read it (LOL). I do, however, have a correction (the melancholy or "C" in me) and an addition.

20.  If Wile I. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why
        didn't he just buy dinner?

The correction is Wile E. Coyote and the addition is:

Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?...bluejay

No. 3 has to do with the era when a postage stamp cost two cents, and putting your two cents worth in had to do with dropping a letter in a mailbox.

No. 5, imagine the expense of making ROUND boxes; for that matter if the container is ROUND, can it properly be called a "box"?

No. 9 -- Take this one a step further. If a defendant is deaf, AND blind, AND mute . . . is it even possible to try and/or convict him of ANY crime at all?
