There are phrases used without hardly any thought given to them before utterance. Some Yay-hoo probably first said it without any thought. Among 'em are "Who can comprehend infinity?", "Science can prove that a bumblee can't fly", "The human brain only uses 5% of its cells" and today's fave: "Even a stopped clock is right twice a day" I can't stand that. Okay smart guy, if that stopped clock is ever right, how about telling me WHEN it's right? Not so smart are ya now, Mr. Einstein! So do you agree? How can a stopped clock ever be right?
