Will this be a good day? How’s the weekend shaping up? Is asking questions about questions rhetorical or just human nature? That is the question. Here are a bunch of others — No answers.
Today’s topic: “Questions? Yes, questions!”
• What would happen to the criminal justice system if it was declared that from now on a "jury of our peers" was comprised entirely of the cheerful lunatics drawn from "The Price Is Right" studio audience?
• Many men experience what is known as a mid-life crisis at about age 50. Math question: In heaven our souls are supposed to live for eternity. If there's such a thing as a mid-Afterlife crisis, when would it strike?
• Which seems sillier: a child believing in Santa Claus or an adult believing that Jesus Christ, a man whose ancestors were uniformly Middle Easterners, was a lily white dude. And would it hurt your faith if scholars revealed Jesus looked more like bin Laden than Ryan Seacrest?
• How much more challenging would it be for Christian believers to convince skeptics about the Resurrection if Scripture said it happened on April 1?
• How did cavemen and women get around that whole no-doors thingie when they wanted to tell a good prehistoric knock-knock joke?
• Problem: plastics clogging the ocean; fish eat the plastics and we eat the fish. This may sound naive, but is anyone looking into the possibilities of making plastic out of fish food?
• What do they call earthquakes on other planets?
• If they gave the death sentence for killing time could you live forever?
• Mother Teresa came from a large family with three sisters, all of whom had large families themselves. Question: Did her nieces/nephews call her Aunt Mother Teresa? Aunt Teresa?
• I remain naive in the ways of high finance, but aren't most trust funds really don't-trust funds?
• Single apple seed weighs 700 mg but sinks. A battleship weighs 45k tons, but does not. What would happen to battleship full of apple seeds?
• What did cavemen call house flies?
“Tweet of the Week …”
“Women age distinctly; men uniformly. As a woman ages, she becomes more individual -- her hair color, her laughter, her manner of dress -- all put her in sharp relief from other women. All men age the same. We lose hair, gain weight and generally stumble thru life w/ the bewildered expressions of men who mistake the sliding glass patio door for open and repeatedly slam into it. If we lived to be 120, we wouldn't be able to walk 50 feet without someone confusing us for their Uncle Burt.”
