Up, Up and up!!!

This was sent to me by Jane McMillan - Very funny!!!

No wonder we English speaking people are so confused.


Make sure you read the whole thing!

Send this to all your friends to confuse
them......


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
officers UP for 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 UP
the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.. We lock UP the house and
fix UP the old car

At other times this little word has real special meaning. People stir UP
trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.

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

And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped
UP.

We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be
pretty mixed UP about UP !

To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look UP the word UP in the
dictionary.. In a desk-sized
dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add UP to about
thirty definitions

If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is
used. It will take UP a lot of your time,
but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP 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 clearing UP. When it rains, it
soaks UP the earth. When it does not rain for awhile, things dry UP. One
could go on & on, but I'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 you UP?

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

Now I'll shut UP
