Sometimes, I wonder.<\/p>\n

About a lot.<\/p>\n

\u2022 For one\u2026. what in the world do rats smell like?\u00a0 I only ask\u2026 because I heard someone say\u2026 \u201cI think I smell a rat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now I have never had the opportunity to get my nose up nice and close to a rat, and have a good whiff.\u00a0 Hence, I do not know what they smell like.\u00a0 So when someone exclaims that they think they smell one\u2026 well\u2026 it makes me wonder about the company I am keeping.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Next.\u00a0 Are crannies happy?\u00a0 They don\u2019t really seem to be okay on their own.\u00a0 They always have to hang out with the nook.\u00a0 In fact, nooks don\u2019t much occur by themselves either.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever heard any one say\u2026 \u201cWell.\u00a0 Will you take a good look at THAT cranny?\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 OR.\u00a0 \u201cHey.\u00a0 Have you seen any good nooks lately?\u201d<\/p>\n

Nope.\u00a0 It is always a nook and cranny that whittle their way into English Muffin sentences.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Alright.\u00a0 How about this one.\u00a0 Who is the dog food taster?\u00a0 I often wonder this when I see the claim that a certain Dog Food has \u201cNew and Improved Taste.\u201d\u00a0 Or worse yet\u2026 Cat Food.<\/p>\n

I think I would rather be a potato chip or pretzel taster.<\/p>\n

\u2022 What about this.\u00a0 Is the Boogie Man a really good dancer?\u00a0 Seems like he ought to be.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Whatever happened to Bozo and Howdy Doody?\u00a0 Why did they fall to the wayside.\u00a0 I mean, sure.\u00a0 The one guy was a real clown and the other one was a big dummy\u2026. but just WHERE is the love?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Speaking of the changing ways of the world.\u00a0 I wonder when Bert and Ernie are going to get married.\u00a0 AND\u2026 I wonder if any of the Teletubbies will really\u2026 finally\u2026. come out?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Not that we were talking about fruits\u2026 but my thoughts just happened to segue this way.\u00a0 It is said that tomatoes are a fruit.\u00a0 And yes.\u00a0 They really are.\u00a0 But here is the thing\u2026 does that make Ketchup the first Fruit Smoothie ever?<\/p>\n

\u2022 I think Animal Crackers are kind of cool\u2026 all shaped like little animals in such\u2026 and they come in a Circus Box.\u00a0 I wonder why Chicken Nuggets aren\u2019t shaped like little chickens, and come in a Coop Box?<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0 Things I don\u2019t wonder.\u00a0 I just know.\u00a0 They will never find Jimmy Hoffa.\u00a0 Hillary Clinton will never be a U.S. President.\u00a0 The Big Mac will make a comeback.\u00a0 And. Faerie dust is real.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s all I have to say about that.<\/p>\n
