Actually the word politic is from the Greek 'polis' which refers to a city and the surrounding countryside. Thus Politic just means 'of the city'. No bloodsucking parasites I'm afraid, though it does make an amsuing pun.

Why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway?
Why are they called Hemmorhoids rather than Asteroids? Why do birds suddenly appear, whenever you are near?

That was TB's old siggy!
Why do they call a meeting for Alcoholics, 'Alcoholics Anonymous' when the first you do is say your name!

Different paint colors for parking lot lines?
Another 'mysterys of life thread', why are some lines in parking lots yellow and some white? And right next to each other as often as not!

This is more in line with "" Things you might not know or Do you know this....or Funny Things"
