Sometimes There Are No Answers
If my feet were smaller, would I trip over them less?
How do they get the pizza in the pizza-flavored Cheetos?
Is there no apparent limit to the amount of mucus the human nose can produce?
And if I eat enough of the Cheetos, will mine be orange?
Are ants grateful when you blow them off from the edge of the pool? Or do they just wonder why a giant wind is keeping them from drowning with their brethren?
If you eat enough sour Sweet Tarts, would your taste buds burn off from the effects?
"So the problem is coordination?" "Well, coordination was always a problem, but now with the other problem it's an even bigger problem than it was before. Or, something."
Was the dude who invented blogging the first one to lose interest after a month, leaving the rest of us to our addictions and futile questions?
Look beyond what you see...

Are ants grateful when you blow them off from the edge of the pool? depends how hot it is outside Or do they just wonder why a giant wind is keeping them from drowning with their brethren? i don't ever recall seeing the word brethren used in a sentence pretaining to ants
If you eat enough sour Sweet Tarts, would your taste buds burn off from the effects? maybe not burn off, but certainly become numb and definitely worth it!
"So the problem is coordination?" "Well, coordination was always a problem, but now with the other problem it's an even bigger problem than it was before. Or, something." huh

no, he keeps coming up with more things to add to our blogs
Actually, I just made it up, but I really enjoyed your answering them!
Things that make you go "hmmm...."
About the feet: if they were smaller, you might not trip over them as much, but you'd have a smaller base and thus be prone to being blown over by a giant wind.
End to the mucus...no. Allergy sufferer.
Orange...yes...after the reflexive inhale after a sneeze.
:) Alice...see you in a few days. Off to North Carolina for training.
Alice, please make sure you train those North Carolinians how to properly pronounce the word "schedule". It's "SKED-juh-wuhl", not "SKEH-jool". Thanks.

Very helpful, Joe. Thanks, that clears up a lot for me.
I love the last question, it's probably true. Was his name Blog?
I suspect "his" name was D-A-R-L-E-N-E...
I'm all for the orange mucus. Orange is the new green.

Yes, there is a limit to how much mucus the nose can reproduce. Just ask my eight-year-old cousin.
Not to belabor the point, or be intentionally gross, but there is good reason to pay attention to everything that comes out of your body. Changes in coloration, consistency, quantity of any such material can signal significant changes in health. As one example, if your mucus really is green, you've got a respiratory infection, period.
The Greeks based medicine on the four humors of the body: the black bile, blood, phlegm and yellow bile. So, if you were sick, it was because one of your humors was out of whack. More than illness, they belived that your mood was reflected from your humors. Like the Greek word "melaina" means black, the Greeks belived that black bile was connected to depression or sad - this is where the word melancholy comes from. Anyway... I think its interesting, if not a tad off topic.
Trust me, I've seen the rainbow.
