Think about it...

UP


Read until the end.....you'll laugh....
This two-letter word in English has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that word
is
'UP.'It is listed in the dictionary as an [adv],[prep], [adj], [n] or [v].

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
officersUPfor
election


and why is it UP to the secretary to
write

UP a
report? We call

UP our friends,
brighten

UP a room,polish UP the
silver, warm

UPthe leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We
lock

UPthe house and
fix

UPthe old
car.




At other times this little word has real special
meaning. People stir

UP trouble,
line

UPfor
tickets, work

UP an appetite, and think UPexcuses.

To be dressed is one
thing but to be dressedUPis
special.



And this UP is confusing: A
drain must be opened

UP because it is stopped UP.

We openUPa store in the morning but we close it UPat
night


We seem to be pretty mixed
UPabout UP !


To be
knowledgeable about the proper uses of

UP,


look UPthe word UP in the dictionary.. In a desk-sized
dictionary, it takes

UPalmost 1/4 of the page and canaddUPto about
thirty definitions


If you areUP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many waysUP is used.. It will takeUPa lot of your time,but if you don't giveUP,you may
windUP 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 clearingUP. When it rains, it
soaksUP the
earth. When it does not rain for awhile, thingsdry UP.One could go on &on, butI'll wrap
it


UP, for now ........my time is UP !



Oh....one more thing:
What is the first thing you
do in the morning & the last thing you do at
night?


U
P


!





Did that one crack youUP?


Don't screw UP. Send this on to everyone you
look
UP in your address
book..or not...it's
UPto you.

Now
I'll shut
UP
