Why does a pack of buns have more buns than you need for a pack of hot dogs?

The hot dog bun conundrum was solved for me by someone I know.  The extra dogs are grill dogs, you know the ones that slip through the grill, or off the grill into the cook's mouth!

why is it that the dogs never fit into the bun?

I agree. . .Depending on how slow they are going, they can be just as dangerous as those who exceed the speed limit.

Romona; you just mentioned my biggest pet peeve when driving. Nothing outrages me more than when someone is too lazy to move their finger 1 inch to turn their blinker on and give a heads up to everybody else behind them as to what they are going to do.  I think there would be a lot less accident on the roads if everybody used their blinkers and communicated with everybody else as to what their intentions on the road are :rant; :rant; :rant; :rant; :rant; :rant; :rant; :rant;

I've always wondered why I relate to plants the way I do.  I just LOVE them.  I love learning their names and growing and watering them, digging in the earth and sometimes I just go to garden centers to see what's new and learn about new varieties.  I always leave feeling excited and peaceful at the same time.  I think plants have personalities too because I love them in general but I don't like all of them equally.  In fact I actually dislike some that other people rave about.  I like the latin names as well as the common names and I don't like torturing them to grow in ways that are against their natures.  I don't like high maintenance ones that need pesticides to get them to behave properly but I do like thinking about how to combine them so that they compliment each other.  My husband thinks I'm loony about them.  I don't spend money on clothes at all, in fact I usually buy my clothes second hand but I spend way too much on plants and feel a bit helpless about it.

If I had unlimited money I'd have extensive collections of plants, books and paintings.  Bliss.

I am tired of being tired  :( . I drag myself to work everyday and I am getting more and more tired every week. I do not know if I can keep this up much longer.  :rant;

Funny thing is that I am still much better at my job than the "healthy" people even with many absences, half days and fatigue.  ::)  :P

It cracks me up when people miss so much work because of this or that. These same opeople couldn't cut it if they had to walk in the shoes of most of the people here.

The bugs are so thick this year that when you drive thru the wetlands near my house, it sounds like rain on the windshield.

Here's another strange British law - we have lots  :rofl; -  It is illegal to have sex on a parked motorcycle in London since a law passed just after WW2.    Presumably it's OK to do it on a moving one then  ???

A poem  - MY STOOPID ROOMBA

My stupid Roomba is driving me crazy
I only bought it because I am lazy
I do not like the way it looks or sounds
it hit a table and knocked a vase down
I wish it would vacuum faster
cuz I might snap and step on that little ba%*&rd  :banghead;

Roomba is a robotic vacuum that cleans your floors for you. All you have to do is plug it in and when you want him to clean you push a button and forget about him, when he is done his chores he goes back to his cradle to recharge and wait for you next demand. He even has a brother that will mop for you called Scooba
