Oh, duh. 9. is zero, of course. And I could go with 60 for number 7, although it depends when you start taking them, right?

1. yes, everywhere has a 3rd, 4th, and 5th of July.
2. One a year :)
3. Again all of them have 28, more have more. Actullay its a rather interesting story behind that..
4. no, I think he'd already be dead.
5. hmm...maybe I'm way off here, but if you divide 30 by 1/2-that is the same as multipling it by 2. (help me out here gradbeth) so ...70?
6. 1? (missed te trick there)
7. 1 hour? Then you'll be out of pills?
8. 9 (redundant question :)
9. 1?
10. there are 12 two cent stamps in a set of a dozen.

1. Yes. It's when they mourn the loss of the US.

2. One. I remember mine vividly. Oh the faces of disappointment.

3. All months have 28 days. Except Sleuthember, which has only 10 for subscribers.

4. The man's dead, so I think not. Zombie weddings are still highly controversial.

5. Seventy. Boy do I hate math.

6. Assuming I didn't actually have the three apples to start with, two. Here, have one Snow White!

7. Sixty, from the moment I take a pill. Mmm, pills.

8. The farmer gets rid of the dead ones right? So nine. Rest in peace, poor sheep.

9. By remarkable coincidence, the answer is the same as the number of years Noah spent wandering in the desert.

10. Twelve. There ARE two cent stamps right? Gosh, soon I'll be trying to outguess my second guesses.

(And a pound of lead IS SO heavier than a pound of feathers.)
