Random Rants

Why can't they invent a vacuum cleaner that works? How can a machine have the power to suck up a sock but not be able to suck up a piece of lint or dog hair?

Why do they make elastic waist pants for boys and girls, normal sized women and obese men and women, but not normal sized men?

Why do so many drivers now dart out recklessly onto a road, only to drive well below the speed limit once they do so? What was the hurry- so they could slow everyone down?

Why is it against the law to ride a bicycle or jog on a sidewalk? What kind of sense does it make to put joggers and bicyclists into the flow of traffic? Weren't we all taught, at one time, not to run or ride our bikes in the street?

Why does Social Security tax only the first $100,000 of income? Isn't this backwards logic?

If it's illegal to share music files with others, is it illegal to let someone else listen to a CD you bought? Shouldn't they have to pay to listen, using this logic? Were all those in my generation who borrowed each other's LP records and tape recorded them, which was just about everyone, also guilty of theft?

Is there any "bumper to bumper" car warranty that actually covers everything between the bumpers?

Why doesn't the Disney Channel- or even Toon Disney- ever show the old Disney cartoons?

Why do people insist on saying "the exception proves the rule," when it does exactly the opposite?

What is there to like about non-alcoholic beer?
