The great two letter word ....?



Think about it.
UP
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 UPthe word UP
 in the dictionary.. In a desk-sized 
dictionary, it takes 
UP almost 1/4 of the page and can addUP 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 end UP or 
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.
Don't forget when your angry at someone it's UP Yours!!!!!

Now I'll shut UP
