Does the light in the refrigerator stay on when you shut the door?

If it is what is was, before it was what it is, what was it before it is what it should have been?

Re: Unanswerable Questions!!

1. If 7-11 is open 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?

2. If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?

3. If you're in a vehicle going the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights?

2 can be answered - google for it (I was curious about it too). I think 3 can too - forget what my textbook says.

hmm...

What is answer to this question?

Re: Unanswerable Questions!!

How many kilowatt-hours of energy does it take for Karthik's surface grinder to blast away the impenetrable fortress of hairspray, gel, mousse, leave-in conditioner, shellac, and clear coat spray surrounding his actual hair?

The world may never know.

If Karthik sings in the woods, and no one is around to hear him, do the woodland creatures still scream in pain?

Re: Unanswerable Questions!!

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

How much wood, could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Why do they call them stands if you sit in them?

Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all"?

I used to have a list too...
I'll hunt it down tomorrow if I remember.

wouldn't it be something like the sonic boom generated by planes traveling at the speed of sound?

what happens if you get scared half to death twice?

if barnum an bailey's kids wanted to run away from home, would they join corporate america?

Re: Unanswerable Questions!!

I borrowed from a website...crazy thoughts ..

here are some of my Favorites from the site...

Do coffins have lifetime guarantees?

If your sick for one week and on one of those days they had to cancel school because of snow, do you have to make up that day at the end of school?

If masochists like to torture themselves, wouldn't they do it best by not torturing themselves? and if so, aren't we all masochist?

Why does Donald Duck wear a towel when he comes out of the shower, when he doesn't usually wear any pants?

And.... One that we had a hour discussion on in Physics...

What defines a near death experience? What is near death, and what is the experience? And, If you are near death and don't have an experience, did you know that you were not going to die?
