This seems to be the center of all wisdom. I have questions and I’m sure others do too.:confused:
Clint’s profound question about the half empty/full glass has caused me to ask the many questions I’ve had for a long time.
Post the conundrums of life that has perplexed you and prepare to gather the pearls that roll forth from Pixieville.:rolleyes:
Here’s a couple of my first queries.:cool:
1.- After eating, do amphibians need to wait an hour before getting OUT of the water?:confused:
2.- Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?:confused:

How come Superman stands there with his arms crossed while the bad guys shoots at him, but when he runs out of bullets & throws the gun at him, HE DUCKS?
Lets see...for PF's questions..
1. it depends on what their mom and dad's say
2. he has it waxed
Scoz, Supes is a nancy-boy...everyone knows Batman is the "bad mutha-fucka of the Justice League

Why does the "Land of the Free" cost so much?
How is "Self Service" different from "No Service?"
Baseball players earn millions each year to shrinking audiences and are thinking of striking for more ... while firemen, nurses, police officers and garbage men earn only a few thousand at a time of growing need and aren't allowed to strike. How does this make sense, again?

I've kept a list of these as I have come across them... here are some of my favorites:
- If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?
- Why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor when you can't drink and drive?
- Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
- Why are there interstate highways in Hawaii?
- You know how most packages say "Open here?" What is the protocol if the package says, "Open somewhere else"?
- Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of drive-up ATMs?
- Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio?
- You know that little indestructible black box that is used on planes, why can't they make the whole plane out of the same substance?
- Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways?

Why is it that the more food you order at McDonald's the cheaper it is?
Like the value meals that include the Huge Soda and XLarge Fries is cheaper than a sandwich and small soda.

1: Because the land of the free hasn't been free for a century.
2:Full Service = Gas station, Gas pumps, Gas Jocky
Self Service = Gas station, Gas pumps, No Gas Jocky
No Service = No Gas station, No Gas Pumps, No Gas Jocky

1: Adhesive
2: I think you can use a state ID as well
3: Because English is a crappy language
4: Interstate is a type of road, it doesn't have to go through more than one state
5: Chainsaw time ; )
6: Engineers that know to much and think to little
7: I don't, but for people who do I guess it helps them concentrate
8: It would be way to heavy to fly
9: See, #3 or #6, which ever floats your boat.
Coach Knight
1: Phsyiclogical re-assurance that it isn't about the money.
2: Special orders mean more hassle and more work, hence more money

1: Because they'er in my stuffy shoes.
2: My nose isn't running, if it was it would probably be due to a cold.

Thinker,
OK... good answers... of course that leads to the questions... why answer "why" questions.... :)
as for:
4: Interstate is a type of road, it doesn't have to go through more than one state
sorry... I won't take that as valid... maybe some partial credit, but not too much... as per Webster's dictionary:
interstate: of, connecting, or existing between two or more states especially of the U.S.
so an Interstate Highway would have a real hard time occuring in Hawaii :)
yeah yeah.... pick pick...

no
and i tend to think that since darkness is the absence of light, that it's speed would be the rate of retreat of light....or in other words, the same speed as light approx 3*10^8 m/s

This is such a common misunderstanding. Evolution DOES NOT suggest that humans evolved from monkeys and apes. Humans, monkeys, and apes are all primates, and all evolved from a common ancestor.

It's not really a matter of whether the glass is half full or half empty. The fact of the matter is that the glass is just too big. :)

Things your Mamma never told you:
What came first.......the chicken or the egg........?
Damn.........I have no idea......
as to the question what came first the chicken or the egg
My daughter at the age of seven answered this question in a song she made up one day........after i had explained where eggs came from..........
Sitting in the bathtub.....7 years old.....singing away
She sang
Are you ready for this?
I nearly pissed my pants laughing!
She sang......
OH THE ROOSTER LAID THE CHICKEN AND THE CHICKEN LAID THE EGG

Scotz, you'd have to ask whacker.
Inside out is you've burst, outside in means you've climbed up
your own rectum.
Which one came first? Check for nicotine stains.
Monkeys and Apes are still disputing Mr Darwin's conclusion.
My own take...
Why is it that when it's all said and done, it usually isn't?

Oh, yes, the packaging police do truly exist. These are the same people who will arrest you if you open a box at the wrong end, or if you fail to eat a pillow after removing the tag which says "...not to be removed except by consumer".

Put a closed bottle to a bright, warm place (especially if the bottle is a plastic one), leave it there for three months and try it afterwards. It might taste ugly. Perhaps you can also see some sea weed (not very probable).
Bottles are not necessarily sterile.
And plastic bottles cause bad taste rather quickly.
