here's a few questions I've pondered..

why did the chicken cross the road?

why is the sky blue?

which came first, the egg or the chicken?

The chicken crossed the road to get to the other side

The sky is blue as that is the frequency at which the suns rays are reflected at in the atmosphere

And the chicken came first, it was created (**no flames please**)

And the chicken came first, it was created

By evolution over millions of years.

I've always wondered why are there interstates in Hawaii?

If it only takes one dollar a day to feed a child in Africa, why does it take two dollars a day to lose weight with Jenny Craig?

And is there another word for "synonym"?

Hehehe good ones. Any others. I love these questions. Oh and btw. I got a book named "101 thing you will never use." That sky one was in there. I gave hte scentific reasoning and proof.

Another was "Is betty crocker a real woman at some point in time?" TOns of stuff like that. I can post some interesting ones if any one wants me to. most of them you proly know tho.

Why is it that you chop down a tree, then you chop it up?

the point is to render the tree more easily reached in its entirety; causing it to fall onto the ground and allowing subsequently more efficient processes to convert it to your needs reaches that goal. chopping actions bring it down.

doing something to make something change can be labeled as changing them ?up,? for you blow a balloon ?up,? and you chop a tree ?up,? and you fix the sink ?right up,? it seems that ?up? is part of the colloquial phrase, with loose literal meaning at best.

or ;)mething like that ;)

the whole money doesn't grow on trees thing...isn't most money made out of paper which obviously comes from trees so um...yeah.
