The English Language Part 2
Let's face it - English is a crazy language.
You lovers of the English language might enjoy this ... There is a
two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter
word, and that is "UP."
It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the
list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP? At a meeting,
why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP
for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report? We
call UP our friends. And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the
silver; we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the
house and some guys fix UP the old car.
At other times the little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP
an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be
dressed UP is special. And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped
UP. We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.
We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP! To be knowledgeable about the
proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized
dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about
thirty definitions. If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list
of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you
don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more. When it threatens to
rain, we say it is clouding UP. When the sun comes out we say it is
clearing UP. When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP.
When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.
Fess UP...you like this!
One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now my time is UP, so...
Time to shut UP...!
Oh ... one more thing......
What is the first thing you do in the morning and the last thing you do at
night? U-P

Why Dog’s smell each other
The dog’s once held a meeting.
They came from near and far.
They came by plane and bus and some by motorcar.
When they were about to enter they found the pace was so crowded that each dog took his asshole off and hung it on a hook.
And after they were seated, every Mother, son and sire some son of a gun up and hollered Fire!
Now the dog’s in their confusion to get out didn’t stop to look.
They just grabbed any old a**hole off the hook.
And so my fair young maiden, when ever you may roam.
You will see a dog smell the others a** to find his own.

Silly American joke
Bob: "How do you shoot a purple elephant?"
Roy: "I don't know. How?"
Bob: "With a purple elephant gun. How do you shoot a pink elephant?"
Roy: "With a pink elephant gun?"
Bob: "There's no such thing! You twist his trunk until he turns purple, then shoot him with the purple elephant gun."
