Things to think about...

At work i am usually by myself for a good 3 hours before i actually see another human...so while i'm by myself I start to ask myself questions that when you think about, boggle the mind....for example:

1.) Do vegetarians eat animal crackers?
2.) If you rip the wings off a fly, is it still considered a "fly"?
3.) Why doesn't super-glue stick to the inside of the tube?
4.) Why did God give man nipples?
5.) If a schizophrenic kills himself, is it murder or suicide?
6.) When sign-makers go on strike, is anything written on their signs?

...something to think about....

...answer any of these questions if you can't, otherwise they will haunt me for life

nothing can ever come close to approaching the speed of light. mass converts to energy when you approach the 186,000 miles per second barrier.

if you want to travel faster than the speed of light you have to "hop on" something that is already traveling at the speed of light

i would assume that if one was already traveling at the speed of light and you switched on another light, that light would be traveling at 2c, or 372,000 miles/sec (twice the speed of light in a vaccume)

its really not a difficult question to answer, the light just goes twice as fast......


it's like the movie k-pak. if you want to travel using multipul varibles of C you have to be "riding a beam of light"

i guess another question would be could you distinguish between the two beams of light? one would get there faster, but how can you seperate two beams of light?

yes. when sign-makers go on strike they are no longer sign makers; they become picketers

the answer is dependant on who the schizophrenic was at the time of the murder/suicide

Joke: Something said or done to evoke laughter or amusement, especially an amusing story with a punch line.

i guess this is what i would consider fun. it reminded me of my philsophy class. you've never asserted a point of view and had to defend it? it's fun. espically when your point of view is off the wall.

That one always confused me. It might be for when they're flying to where they're gonna run into, in case anything hits them on their way there.

first of all.. you dont eat the first hotdog and the last one.. you give them to the dog.... second.. kamakazi's wore helments so they wouldnt be shot in the head preventing them from hitting their target... and Kamakazi is the final attack when your plain is shot and your only going down..


You turn on the light and the darkness goes away... where does it goto ?
