What should you do if you see an endangered animal eating an endangered plant?
If you had amnesia and then were cured, would you remember that you forgot?
Why do we press harder on remote control buttons when we know the battery is dead?
"I am" is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language.
Could it be that "I do" is the longest sentence?
If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?
:confused:
1) Nothing, let nature work out it's processes.
2) Yes, you would not suddenly forget everything that has happened since you got amnesia.
3) The moment I "know" the battery is dead, I replace it. I do not press harder.
4) No, look at the divorce rate.
5) We aren't here to help others. But "IF" that was true, then others are there to help everyone but themselves. They are even here to help you.
Leave the "shrooms alone" !
Why in a country of free speech, are there phone bills?
When your pet bird sees you reading the newspaper, does he wonder why you're just sitting there, staring at carpeting?
Why do we wait until a pig is dead to "cure" it?
Simply... Because!
animals eating plants is how most plants survive in the long term is it not? they eat the seeds and then spread them around the land when they go for a number 2.
1) Speech is free, but use of the technology costs money.Quote:

I hope.
1) To prevent a head wound. It takes an aware, capable pilot to purposefully steer the plane into it's target. If they simply let themselves be as vulnerable as possible, they may splash harmlessly into the water.Quote:

3) I turn down the radio if I have to ask a pedestrian for directions. You want to be able to hear their response.

1) "There is one in every crowd." That statement does not exclude the possibility of two. There could be 2 or 3 or 500 in addition to that 1, and thus have a crowd.Quote:

In 1931, there was a WPA (Works Project Administration) project called Skyline Drive in the National Park Service's Shenandoah National Park in Virginia. This was a 105 mile road through the national park. The term "parkway" was initially for a long stretch of road that meandered through a park for a beautiful, leisurely drive. The term grew to encompass most long stretches of road that had landscaping around it. The word parkway was used to describe a well developed thoroughfare, complete with trees, grassy divided medians and other landscaping, thus the "park" in the name.
The term "driveway" came about because driveways were initially much longer, leading from the road back to the main house on the property. So initially people really did drive on them. Great houses that needed driveways were not set on the street. You needed a small road to drive back through the property to even reach the home. They were called driveways because they were not an official road, with a street name, yet you drove a fair distance on them.
3) Dark has no speed, the answer is "null" if it is anything. Dark is simply the lack of light. As long as there are no photons of light particles bouncing around an area, then it is "dark."
just by the topic name u sound mean and greedy..............
Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
Why isn't there mouse-flavoured cat food?
1) Because they broker transactions for you.Quote:

2) That is the time of day that the most people rush to the roads, because it is time for their commute. This rush to the roads will usually cause traffic congestion.
3) Cats catch mice and eat them, because they are a prey of opportunity. Mouse is certainly not a preferred flavor, in fact, most mice killed by cats are not eaten. They leave the corpse usually without eating it, so that is good evidence that cats like killing mice, but not the flavor. Actually cats generally love exotic meats, like zebra and wildebeest. But, since we have a lot more beef chicken and fish, those are the flavors they get. We also control those meats, so that lowers contamination and health risks. There are not mouse farms that breed mice for slaughter and inoculate them against disease.
I knew somebody that worked in a slaughterhouse. I can promise that it is nigh impossible for a mouse to end up in your meat products. But, I cannot make the same promise for pet food (so there may be mouse flavored cat food ;)). Do not eat dog/cat food. It is not completely the beef/chicken/tuna you might think it is. It is also not necessarily the parts of the cow/chicken/fish you might hope they would feed your puppy/kitty.
My friend was very proud of his days in the slaughterhouse. He could gut and clean a pig in 30 seconds. :eek:
If horrific means to make horrible, does terrific mean to make
terrible?
Why do overlook and oversee mean opposite things?
Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would be if it didn't zigzag?
You keep trying to find mind blowing contradictions, yet each has reasonable explanations. I'm tired of throwing logic on your attempts. Maybe I'll come back to this thread another day. It's someone else's turn to answer. :D
ya maybe its time to rest and let someone else post some questions on here
Rota you have been very indefatigable with your answers
and i thank you
1. No. (I think it would be better to say that horrific causes horror, rather than "make horrible". The same applies for terrific + terror.) Terrific did mean that, up until 1888, when a colloquial meaning was adapted, which is the modern-day interpretation of the word.Quote:

Oversee has meant "to supervise" since the middle of the 15th century. It lacks the literal meaning of overlook, therefore it is what it is. :)
3. No I never have wondered that because electricity (and therefore, lightning) takes the path of least resistance, not the shortest distance. Particles in the air, or even water droplets, can affect the path. This is what causes zig-zags instead of a straight line.
If man evolved from apes why do we still have apes?
Why are apartments so close together?
Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?
What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
If man evolved from apes why do we still have apes?
- because man didn't evolve from apes or lemurs or possums... man barely evolved at all and it looks like we never will
Why are apartments so close together?
- they have a penchant for cuddles
Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?
- only a wise a** and a wise man are truly opposite... a wise man is just as often a wise guy as a wise woman is a wise gal
What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
- you die
1) Man didn't evolve from modern apes. Man and modern apes are different evolutionary paths from the same ancient, prehistoric primates.Quote:

3) They aren't, there can be a wise guy who is also a wise man.
4) You get scared 75% to death. The first scare puts you at 50% near death. Since you are at 50%, the next "half" scare takes you 25% closer to death.
1. If a man is standing in the middle of the forest speaking and there is no woman around to hear him - is he still wrong?
2. If a deaf person swears, does his mother wash his hands with soap?
3. If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?
4. Is there another word for synonym?
5. Isn't it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do "practice?"
6. When you open a bag of cotton balls, is the top one meant to be removed?
7. Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all?"
8. If the police arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent?
9. If a parsley farmer is sued, can they garnish his wages?
10. Would a fly without wings be called a walk?
Lol....have fun!!!!
:-)
1. YesQuote:

5. Nope
6. They are all meant to be removed, eventually. You bought them to use them, not keep them in the bag forever.
7. It varies from ranger to ranger.
8. Yes
9. Yes
10. No
If a thread is spam, should it be canned?
