LAZY EYE
Nut Theory
It is widely known that most
guys have one nut slightly larger than the other. I understand that this
is an evolutionary phenomena to prevent the nuts from squashing against
one another. That makes sense.
It is also widely known that
most people have one foot larger than the other.
My theory is that one’s larger
nut corresponds with one’s larger foot - a theory that has been confirmed
through a casual survey of my friends (asking only).
Fruit Tingle Conspiracy
A workmate who enjoys Fruit
Tingles came upon the shock realisation that the "speckled" ones were no
longer amongst the straight yellow, green, red, and orange ones. After
several phone calls to Allens it was explained to him that the "speckled"
ones were presently out of production due to a breakdown in the factory.
Each colour has its own mixing
tub and there used to be a spare tub which was filled with all the scraps
and leftovers at the end of the day to make the speckled ones. However,
when one mixing tub broke down the spare one had to be used for a straight
colour one resulting in "no speckles".
Doggies, Fish and Animal
Thoughts
When a doggy looks up at
me and I look right into his eyes do I look as cute and irresistible to
him as he does to me ? Do dogs think some people are "cuter" or more appealing
than other people ? Is it possible to have a personality conflict with
a dog, or do they love anyone who treats them nice ?
Are there nice fish
? Like do fish do things for each other and look after each other ? Or
do they just swim around trying to get in first for the next bit of food
?
Is it possible for us to
influence the way a bird sings ? If a group of birds hung out around a
football ground for example, might they begin to mimic the sound of people
chanting ?
I wonder if leathers have
different smells. Because the leather was once a living, breathing cow
with its own odour, is that smell captured in its skin when we wear it
as leather ?
Telephones
I reckon there’s a guy at
the telephone companies whose job it is to dream up ways of making us make
more phone calls and even bigger profits. Recently they’ve been promoting
this great service where you dial 12456 and pay "75 cents plus call cost"
to find out someone’s phone
number. And all that in exactly the same time it takes to dial the current
(free) 013 number. Which made me think about all the other rip offs masquerading
as "service".
Invention No 1. - Call
Waiting
Apart from interrupting conversations,
Call Waiting ensures that an extra 30 cents is made by the company every
time somebody promises to "call you back". Normally they’d just get the
engaged signal and try again later at no charge to the receiver. Ingenious.
