#77: Life's Ponderables

Today I was standing in my favorite sheltered spot out of the wind that was making this obviously global warming day feel like 2 degrees above zero, enjoying another Boca Java and a Finke's natural, pondering the deeper things in life and managed a few "Why, Daddy?" questions to which I don't necessarily have the answers.
Why do the hairs of your mustache above your lip pull out occasionally and not those of the Manchu part?
Why does an eyelash feel like its the size of a spear when it gets in your eye?
Why does lint collect in your navel?
Why do we have 'innies' and 'outies' instead of one standard model?
Why doesn't someone invent flavored shoes for those of us who stick our feet in our mouths?
Why does hair stop growing on your head but start in your ears?
Why isn't plaid one of the colors of the spectrum?
Why is it that hydrogen and stupidity are the two most numerous elements in the universe?
Why don't we have great music playing in the backgrounds of our lives like occurs in movies?
Why do some folks say "y'all," others say "you all," others say "you'uns," and still others say "youse" here in the USofA?
Why do family members listen to strangers who say the same things you do, but not to you?
Got queries?
