Post 'em here and see what riddles we can solve between us.
Some of my great unanswered questions are
- why does the toast always land butterside down?
- if fruit flies like a bannana why does time fly like an arrow?
- what was it that made Hannible think attack over moutains = elephants?
-
Maybe the toast lands butter side down because it weighs slightly more than the non-buttered side.. ???
I don't get the second riddle at all.. :P
Baja Men let the dogs out.. Unfortunately.. :id:
And perhaps Hannibal chose the sturdiest, hardiest animals he could find..
Am I getting the gist of this little game? :-\
My unanswered questions (some I remembered after looking on the interwebs) :
- If a man is standing in the forest talking and there's no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?
- WHY do they put braille at the drive thru window?!
- Why are cigarettes sold in pharmacies where they also sell self-help methods to quit smoking?
-
Maybe if I butter the toast on both sides it will be more evenly balanced?
To your questions I say
Yes, without a shadow of a doubt. Because if he's iin the middle of a forest, just talking to trees then he's barking.
Work creation scheme

- How does Snoopy balance on that doghouse, when he's asleep?
- What would happen if one was bitten/stung by a time fly?
- Why is it called Value Added Tax when they are taking more money AWAY from you?
-
Well, just think, if you butter both sides it will always land butter side up! ::)
Maybe Snoopy has an indentation going down his backside (like say, a butt crack) that helps him stay up there while sleeping..
If one was bitten by a time fly.... hm, they would probly be able to travel in time.. How cool!
And I know nothing about the Value Added Tax.. Never heard of it..
