    Question Silly Questions? Sensible Answers!

    I was listening to the radio yesterday and these questions came up
    • 'Where does your lap go when you stand up?'
    • 'Why do you have Eject buttons on remote controls if you have to get up and change the DVD/CD/Video/Tape?'
    Are there any other silly questions people have and would like only sensible answers please, if there are any answers

    What is an occasional table during the rest of the time?

    Why is (was) there only one Monopolies Commission?

    When people say "It's raining" - what do they mean by "it"?

    Why does toast always land buttered side down???

    Why when you go away on holiday (In the uk?) is the weather always better in the place that you left?

    An ornament. Most furniture would have an 'Occasional' use.

    Why don't sheep shrink in the rain?

    Is there another word for 'synonym'?

    Sorry Freya, that is a sensible question and it has an answer.

    Why toast lands butter side down

    If you can't be bothered to click the url, it's cos of the height of the kitchen worktop and the period of rotation of falling bread.

    Hope that makes you feel the world is a safer, saner place.

    But what happens if you strap the toast butter side up, to the back of a cat, and push it off the worktop?

    Well, now that you mention it....

    Say person A lives in Y and person B lives in Z. If person A goes on holiday to Z and person B, at the same time, goes on holiday to Y, the weather cannot simultaneously be better in Y and Z than in Z and Y.

    You must be able to think of a silly question. How about "Which foot should I step back on in a First Move?"? DJ, where are you
