In the supermarket they sell bottles of liquid labelled "Still water". At what stage will it cease to still be water.
And talking of water, one brand says it has percolated and been filtered through rock for thousands oof years before being bottled. Good job they bottled it when they did as its best before date is only in a months time.
What does an occasional table become when it is not a table.
Who did the first person who bought a telephone want to ring?
Where did the first person who bought a car buy petrol from? Or who did the first filling station sell petrol to?
How many people died eating poisonous mushrooms and berries before they knew which ones were ok to eat?

There used to a sign on Brighton beach which said 'Do Not Throw Stones At This Notice.'
I very very often see People walking their Dogs in gardens right next to the Sign saying "NO DOGS EXCEPT GUIDE DOGS".
And there is the age-old sign "NO BALL GAMES", which of course means the exact opposite.
And then those signs saying "NO CYCLING", at which it is difficult to resist the urge to take out a Marker Pen and add: "Unless you are aged Under Eighteen."... (...Rant ! )
