    Ask a Stupid Quetion Get a Stupid Answer

    That's quiet a mouseful of a quetion there... hummmm... I'm afraid I can't quite hash it out. Why do hummingbirds, in the presence of sharp! pointy! teeth! turn on those reverse rockets full thrust but always seem to land beak deep in nectar, while whales, of noticeably greater size often...

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    In the year !888, you say? Ahhhh! I daresay therein lies the key to your quetion, for it is a documented hysterical fact that in the year !888 the Great Doge of Venice, returned, after a long exile, having been forced to flea a few years prior by the unseemly hysterisms of his second cousin...

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    Neither a planet nor a star, I guess I'd be an oxymoron. At the height of my success, the best I might hope for is a special episode of Nova. What do you do if you're scuba-diving in the Lesser Antilles and you realize you have barely enough oxygen left to get you to the surface without...

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    No surprise really. The left wing has been challenged from the start... since the Wright brothers pioneered aircraft and flight as we know it. What do you do if the What Do You Do If thread has become so riddled with lefts, rights and wrongs it is impossible to determine the orientation of...

    Sounds like Fawlty Premises to me. Doubtful people read all of this thread, so they'd not have the ghost of a chance of following its spirit. As I was pondering the anser to your free-spirited quetion, it occurred to me that there was an odd recursion about it such that, were one not careful...

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    This is one of those unsual cases where simply not thinking about the problem will make it go away: the painting will soon vanish. What do you do if you the painting vanishes, but the ladybug does not, and she would like to fly away home but for the unfortunate residue of Cerulean blue which...

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    Ehhhh, open foot, insert mouth? Anyway, sounds kinky to me. What do you do if there's a little green man in your head, and the Kinks won't stop telling you about it?

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    Perform breathing exercises and tell yourself it's just a screen. What do you do if you simply cannot work yourself up to the task at hand?

    Unlikely - if his pocket rocket went off I think it would have been anything but accidental. Does a pocketful of posies imply explosive originality?

    What Do You Do If You Were a Rock Star?

    Simply doing what is logical should avoid maceration and placate the green-blooded elvenkind. What do you do if you bought a lot of stock in lard, and it vanishes without a trace?

    This is a trick quetion because a Zooby has yet to be caught... anywhere. If you fly in the face of fire will you alight on the wings of a dove?

    Fly in the vase of voracity and jam what was once a-jar. How do you jam toothpaste into a crock of marmalade which was sealed air-tight by a layer of pre-chewed Chicklets?

    Depends how wide the container is and how many gals have been hired to mash the grapes. That said I do believe they now use mechanical mashers, which quite defeats[/color] the purpose of my answering thus, but this will have to do. Why are antacid tablets (Tums) flavoured with citric acid?

    Give him an Oscar (Meyer Wiener) he can flap instead and, in your best Queen's English, suggest we be on our way home. What do you do if you can't ketchup to him?
