    Imagine trying to learn English and it's expressions how hard it must be for foreigners.
    Here's a few expressions.......
    Ever wondered why Funerals starts with Fun!
    If money doesn't grow on trees why call banks branches?
    If a Vegetarians eat vegetables, what do Humanitrians eat?
    How do you get off a Non-Stop flight!
    Why are goods sent by ships called Cargo and those sent by truck called Shipment ?
    How come Noses run and Feet smell?
    A 100 years ago everyone travelled by horses 0nly the rich had cars,
    today everyone has cars and only the rich own horses!.......Just a thought

    There is a couple of nationalities where they speak English as their first Language and even they have trouble with it? if it was not for the F word they would be stuck for words half the time.
