Stupid questions that are hard to answer.

Qanta is correct, yes, you would choose the lions since most lions that don't eat in four years aren't going to be very alive

Physics scare me. I'm only in Science Foundations (blah. blah blah BLAH.) and I like genetics much more than the other things we've done. Maybe I'll take Bio next year.

Can chocolate mold? I'm asking this because my eyes are brown with a little green and my friend described them as "either tree bark or moldy chocolate." Which immediately launched the event of both of us wondering if chocolate could mold.

Can it?

Because no one believes in quantum mechanics?

It could also be that nobody believes in cats.

Nope -- that's someone's faulty interpretation of the laws of physics. Don't believe everything you read/hear.

Or, more accurately, it was an interpretation of the laws of physics that didn't include accurate modeling of low-volume fluid vortexes - in this case, the fluid was air.

Chocolate can mold, but it needs to be in a wet... warm place to do so...
And it does take awhile.
Chocolate thats left to sit for a long time (years) gets chocolate dusty (and stale) and it molds quite easily after that.

Why do some yearbooks have Words of Wisdom for 7th Graders when only 8th graders get them?

If your name is Mr. Crunch, and you joined the Navy, would you eventually be Captain Crunch?

*muses* only if you achieved the rank of Captain?

Continuing the Cap'n Crunch questions:
If you advance from Cap'n... do you become a Maj'r?

Hmm... Oh, I have one!

When you refer to nails, vinegar, and hot pepper, and your friends start drooling... is it okay to show them what you mean? 0:)

No I think Majors come before Captains in the chain of command. I could be wrong though.

Hmm... a hard question...

How many muscles does the average human have?
