I've seen all of the Jason Bourne movies quite a few times over the years. It hit me when watching one of them the other night that he never had a job in any of the movies. How did he travel all over the world? Apparently he and his girlfriend lived in India for two years, but you never see him flipping burgers or selling mattresses. How did he do that?
On a site I visit nightly, I see ads for motorcycle helmets. Tonight there was one ad for a Scorpion model, and another ad for a Shark. Why don't underwear makers ever name mens briefs "Scorpion" or "Shark"? For that matter, why don't motorcycle helmet makers ever have a Fruit of the Loom model?
People here in Alabama, and maybe in the rest of the south, call shopping carts "buggies". People in Milwaukee call drinking fountains "bubblers". How can people just 700 miles apart speak the same language so differently, and neither of them correctly?
More to come as my mind wanders.
