The Mysteries of Life

There is something about Christmas time that makes you think a little deeper than normal.

Perhaps this is due to excessive alcohol consumption, but I was reading a forum thread the other day where people were discussing the meaning of life.

According to Wikipedia:

“What is the meaning of life?” is probably the most-asked philosophical question by humanity at large, though we will probably never find the answer, for whatever reason. Common answers include: happiness or flourishing; love; compassion; pleasure; reproduction; power; 42; knowledge, understanding, or wisdom; and being blessed, or achieving union with God or the divine; or simply that there is no meaning to life.

I am sure this is a topic that most of us have pondered, but in my opinion there are MUCH great mysteries than the meaning of life. So this is a message to all the philosophical thinkers, scientists, NASA workers, religious leaders etc… please can you stop worrying about the meaning of life and focus some of your time on lifes most important mysteries.

Here is a list of the ACTUAL 10 biggest mysteries of life:

10) Why is it that people say they “slept like a baby” when babies wake up every two hours?

9) Why do banks charge a fee on “insufficient funds” when they know there is not enough in the account?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a gun at him?

7) Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

6) Whose idea was it to put an “S” in the word “lisp”?

5) Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

4) Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don’t point to their bum when they ask where the bathroom is?

3) If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?

2) Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?

and finally, the biggest mystery of all…………
