Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

How did the "experts" determine that when my Shitzu dogs wag their tails they are laughing?

When did George Carlin figure out that snot was the original rubber cement?

George Carlin could answer those questions AND describe football all in one

Baseball: Why is it when it is the third strike and there is a swing/miss if the ball is in the dirt the batter must be tagged out?

Same reason that is the batter swings on a curveball, the catcher fails to catch the ball and it hits the dirt, rolling pasdt him. He fails to control the ball and he heads to first base and he is safe mnost likely.

An apartment building is actually one building with lots of SEPARATE living spaces. And the word comes from the Latin word for "separate," "appartare"

This idea dates back before the time of the interstate system to the time of the great depression. In 1931, there was a WPA (Works Project Administration) project called Skyline Drive in the National Park Service's Shenandoah National Park in Virginia. This was a 105 mile road through the national park which provided a panoramic view of the park. Completed in 1939, it was thought that all long stretches of roads would run though parks to the point where long roads were deemed "parkways

A driveway is a road that you drive on, typically either to the street or your garage.

But if you park on a parkway you get a ticket,lol. Good answers I guess, but we have several parkways in KC that have no parks next to them, and trucks arent allowed.
Shouldnt a drive way be an idleway? nowa days anyways.....for us common folk......
