    Now I'm just confused???

    Thats not a silly question!!!!! Surely the foot you step back on depends on what your next move is and which foot your most comfortable stepping back on!!

    How bout...Why do cats have nine lives? Why not 8 or 10???

    Would the cat be right?......ah, that's probably a straightforward answer!

    If a mute swears, does his mother make him wash his hands with soap ?

    You know that little indestructible black box that is used on planes, why can't they make the whole plane out of the same substance?

    Do blind men still pee standing up?

    Why is it that when you own two of something, you can always find both, but if you only buy one, it goes missing really quickly (girls, I'm thinking nail files, tweezers, that sort of thing)?

    Come to think of it, Why Black Box? Why not Blue? or pink with yellow poker dots? Come to think of it again, surely being black, it be harder to find amoungst a burn out plane? Perhaps, my idea wasn't so off the wall!

    Another thing, why is dyslexia so hard to spell?

    May they choose to sleep upside down! It is a free world after all or are bats not included?

    They aren't actually black - they're red or orange, to make them easier to spot. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Fdr_sidefront.jpg)

    You're the one calling it a Black Box (you could call it a Flight Data/Voice Recorder) so you tell us why you call it a Black Box!
