Why... did the chicken cross the road?

Why are most Indian men more petite than me? Why can't I spell? Why didn't I have a good day? Why can't I put this book down? Why am I listening to this song over and over again? Why should I always save best for last? Why do you expect me to enjoy birthdays? Why is it so hard to value what you have till its gone? Why is it just so hard to make that decision? Why should I trust you? Why can't we just get along? Why is so much left unsaid? Why can't all wrongs be undone? Why does laughter give way to tears? Why doesn't the heart ever listen to the head? Why do opposites attract? Why do things just not work out sometimes? Why did 'they' seem so perfect? Why is this upsetting me so much? Why don't I feel the same anymore? Why do we assume things will get better? Why do we just say that? Why do these small things make you sooo happy? Why am I so fickle? Why should I care? Why do we lie so much? Why doesn't the mind ever rest? Why don't we tire of mistakes? Why do they say the past will come back to haunt you? Why should the past haunt you? Why do some people believe in the supernatural? Why doesn't magic exist? Why do we believe in a religion? Why don't I pray? Why do the questions always outnumber the answers?
Why are you still reading this?

"why" is the single most powereful word in any language, everything man has ever done is an answer to some sorta why. i wonder WHY it is like that :-)

Why do I love this post of yours, and hope that you write more of these, even though it means you are sad and confused?
Why do I feel like trying out the staccato style of writing, even though I fear I'll do a miserable job of it?

Not as miserable as my friend. And it is a most wonderful and dangerously addictive writing style. It should come with a statutory warning.

Almost the same as above ;)

Hmm.. Apparently., chennai happens to have some good people (like myself.. :D :D).. So., we are still floating and not totally drowned :-). Anywayz., my driving-though-knee-deep-water skills have been greatly improved by these rains. So., I'm not gonna blame em.. (grr.. grr.. grr.. dumb rains that screwed my bike..).

> Oh and how was the getaway? worht
> these sleepless nights?

The getaway was a.w.e.s.o.m.e :D.. Well., I dont know about the worth-it-or-not part., however even if was not., i can make it even in the new-year blast.. :P

PS: Why are most Indian men more petite than me?
What about the married ones whose paunch diameteres are more than their total height?
