How many loads of laundry did you do last time you did laundry?

Thanks! Now I've just remembered that I've got to go upstairs, grab the washing and start it all over again. :grumpy:

If one hen lays one egg in one day, and two hens lay two eggs in two days, how long does it take a monkey with a wooden leg to kick the seeds out of a watermelon

Can't give you an exact time scale. It'd take him a while though. I've just nicked his leg to knock some boxes down from the top of the kitchen cupboard.

What does the world smell of?

Why do dog toy companies have to put squeaky things in the toys? And it's always in the puppy toys.... never the old-fart dogs who would never play with the stupid things.

The noise drives the dogs mad to. That's why they keep biting down on them. They try to kill them to make it stop. And then get depressed when it squeaks no more.
Try to buy some latex toys. They still have the noise, but it's softer and different. Plus the toys bounce and are harder to destroy.

Why is it called a Humming bird when it doesn't have lips?

A question my daughter always asks: What is your favorite fruit?

Jonathan apples ripened by the first northern New Mexico frost of the fall, hanging on the tree in my parents orchard, so juicy it runs down your chin.

If nothing sticks to teflon, how do they get teflon to stick to the pan?

Meysha · Jul 6, 2005

I think the more important question is: How do they get the pan to stick to the teflon?
Which is easy - See teflon is an ancient material that we have actually been using for millions of years in ancient communities. These round bowls had amazing properties and when our ancestors saw the possibilities, they quickly buried the teflon in bowl shapes and waited till the iron age. Then they cast hundreds upon millions of aluminium, and stainless steel bowly things that fitted exactly the shapes of the teflon bowls. They simply pushed them up against one another - then they buried them again for a few hundred years deeeep under the ocean where the weight of the ocean combined with gravity forced the two metals to merge and become one.

Then when the Titanic sunk it disloged layers and layers of ocean floor and millions of these miracle items have been slowly coming to the surface over time.

See ... easy.

If today was your last day, what would you do?

Alison · Jul 6, 2005

I would spend the day with Aubrey and the boys and my parents. We would go bowling and I would eat a chili cheese dog and have New York Super Fudge Chunk Ice cream.

What is your favorite ice cream flavor?
