Had no idea we had started the marathon thread but just to try and get the last word in. Not mine and don't claim them to be but here goes. Why do you park on a driveway? Why do golf ***** have dimples, how many, and why? Why do we call it an easy chair when it's hard as heck to get out of? Why do they call it a sleeper sofa when thats the last thing you can do with that bar in your back? Why is the 13th floor missing? WHy do we them paydays when we should be calling them bill days? Sorry but this is making my pee brain hurt alttle so I'll quit now.

Jeez you park in a driveway because you drive on a parkway... thought you knew that :

Now the elevator thing is a different story. Not sure how that would play out as you are moving at the same speed as the elevator. On the old train setups where a brakeman rode on top of the cars when hooking up they were taught to jump up when the car hit the hitch. I was brought up by my grandparents and my grandfather used to talk about that. He was an interesting man, way back he used a Model A to truck melons from Long Island to upstate New York in the finger lakes region. He had a bunch of pictures of those trips. Oh well, he met my Grandmother and stayed in Binghamton. That would have been around 1920's. By 1926 he was well established in Binghamton.

Probably a better description would be "melon head"

Well , your are still trucking, Some of us got out while the getting was good . But some of my friends still call me the dead end kid.

I though that was because the cieling would make a sandswich out of you. That's why I ALWAYS open the escape hatch and stand under the opening.

That’s so they can truck them pineapples to market. Now the real reason is because some congressman needed a vote from the congressman from Hawaii. And the congressman from Hawaii needed some jobs in his district. And the only thing that they could come up with on a short notice was a highway construction job. :'(
