Post the things you've always wondered about or your random thoughts and see if someone can answer it.

Like:
How do those 'Keep Off The Grass' signs get there?

It can be totally random!

From Wikipedia, the site where you can find pretty much anything:

"Mary Jane was a character created by the Brown Shoe Company. Mary Jane would often tag along with Buster Brown, another marketing character by the Brown Shoe Company."

If the countries, Hungry and Turkey were to fight, would they use gravy as their ammunition?

Ok, I could not pass this up:

1. Whatever happened to Preparations A through G?

2. You know the signs on restaurant doors? No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service? What if someone goes in with No Pants? Would the restaurant still have to serve them?

And in line with the arm hair mysteries:

3. Why doesn't the hair on your arms grow as fast as the hair on your head?

Oh and the moon is most surely made of Swiss cheese.

May I just say that Anikka is the cutest thing ever! And only Cordy would have split arm hairs!

If Hungary had gravy, they probably wouldn't be Hungary! But do you think they would serve Turkey on China and drink Canada Dry?


Aww, Cenoe, I'm just a crazy old cat lady... *wanders off, muttering about cats with split ends on their fur*

1. "You know the signs on restaurant doors? No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service? What if someone goes in with No Pants? Would the restaurant still have to serve them?"

If it is a sit-down restaurant no. If it's a fast food joint with a counter, yes. With the workers at places like Mc D's and Starbucks it pretty much "out of sight, out of mind..."

2. "Why doesn't the hair on your arms grow as fast as the hair on your head?

Because they are 2 different types of hair. The shorter body hair is called “vellus” hair and the stuff on your head is called “terminal.” Interestingly, vellus hair can partially terminal during puberty and terminal can revert to vellus during male pattern baldness.

So...you're saying that if I can get me a mullet wig made entirely from prepubescent arm hair...I'll be a freaking Adonis again, right???
