Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?
Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is not enough?
Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?
Whose idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"?
What is the speed of darkness?
Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours?
Are there specially reserved parking spaces for "normal" people at the Special Olympics?
If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?
How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

those are good.....
one i have always thought about.......why do fishermen in boats cast as close to the bank as possible, but fishermen on the bank cast out into the water as far as possible?
if you are driving at the speed of light, and turn your headlights on, do they cast a beam, and if they do, do they do it at twice the speed of light?

But an even deeper thought. If you are traveling at twice the speed of light and look behind you, what do you see? Yourself coming toward you?

Superman is bulletproof. Bullets bouncing off of him in the midst of gunfire. Yet, if someone throws a gun at him he ducks. The old Superman classics make me laugh.:D

That's a good one. Another one was in an old Japanese series, had a guy trying to disarm a nuclear bomb. He dropped his screwdriver and he threw the girl to the ground and covered her up. "Get Back!" he said. "It might go off!" I laughed for weeks over that one.

Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window

Everybody has an uncle that plays jokes on unsuspecting kids, right? I had one.
"Hey boy. You know what that stuff right there on the ground is?"
It was obvious what it was, but I said, "No. What is it?"
"Boy, that's chicken s--t. See that white stuff on top of it? Know what that is?"
He had my interest so I said, "No, what's that?"
He said, "That's chicken s--t, too."
Of course all the adults got a laugh at my expense but it gave me one to pull on my own nephews 25 years later.

No.
Well, sort of no, but sort of no you can't do that.
The theories of relativity and causality suggest that traveling at the speed of light or greater would be physically impossible because as you approach the speed of light, your mass exponentially grows greater and greater until you run out of universe.
The other problem is that the acceleration required would use infinate ammounts of energy... Thus turning on a 60 watt bulb would take infinity +60w. That's impossible.
Quit being silly Keith... This is a forum for grownupeds.

If a stealth bomber crashes in the middle of the forest, does it make a sound? And how will they find it?

Why is it called a Menstrual cycle? Why not call it a Womenstrual cycle?
Why is it called a Hysterectomy? Why not call it a Hersterectomy?
Why are they called Gynecologists? Why not call them Girlnecologists?
Why not call Hemorrhoids Asteroids?
