OK, 'splain THIS one to me

So I work for a sign shop, and we make a lot of things with Braille on them. Over the years, we've wondered why drive-up ATMs need Braille, and why anyone would need a Braille sign that says "Caution, do not touch." But the champion came in today. We're making Braille panels for coin-op washing machines. You know, "whites, colors, perm press, bright colors," that sort of thing. My question is, how on Earth are blind people supposed to sort their laundry? How would they know what cycle is supposed to be used for what clothes? And if a red sock gets in with the whites, does it really matter to them?

(These are the things I think about when I'm bored at work...)

The same reason why Kamakazi pilots wore helmets.

this is right along the lines of something that I have noticed that is very perplexing...

Dogs have one of the most sensitive sences of smell in the animal world.....so why is it when a strange dog comes around they have to stick their nose all the way up their *** to smell it? or whey when you have them out to take a dump and they are walking around the yard trying to find a suitable DUMPING GROUND, and they come across another pile of their OWN stuff...WHY do they have to stick their nose all the way up to it to smell it? ITS THEIRS FOR GODS SAKE!!! AND ITS ****!!!! they MUST be able to smell it from a distance....

SO WHAT IS UP WITH THAT????
