That's quite a list of imponderables -- some are mundane,others,esoteric. Can't decide whether sentences starting with the word 'Why' require a questions mark or not. Gets one thinking, doesn't it?

PS - very difficult to share underwear but must be done if necessary, especially in the winter.

Mundane is good -- Like about why your son need to change his cell phone so often. Mine does too. Those everyday things - stapler near shampoo in bathroom, etc. The little mysteries of life.

Then the 'BIG' ones - liberalism, capitalism, and all that. Very difficult.

Anyway, pretty fun list.

10. Chris, I hate to tell you, but your house is shrinking.
6. Their GPSs work.
3. Voting, not-voting... We Americans have a sad history of hanging chads and other forms of not-voting. By contrast, if you're actually at a demonstration, can you not be considered a demonstrator even if you're just there for the music and the company and no. 2 above?
