Just been informed these computers shut down in a few minutes so I can only answer a few of these for you:

Not usually when I'm on dry land and it isn't raining.

Who says they're important -- just in the right profession at the wrong time.

Taxing.

Nah.. neither our clothes nor your body is accepted in heaven and theyll burn off in hell, anyway.

To make you think it's a square meal in  itself.

Hoof & mouth -- both were cut off before processing.

How do you think we found out that rockets didn't work well for luggage?

I always hated this one, it doesn't make any sense. I mean Uranus is outside the hemisphere too. Roll Eyes

H, I always like reading you're replies to these type of questions. The last two were great. Grin Grin Grin

They're all funny... and H, you didn't skip a beat,great replies Grin
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

I'll try to answer a few more. However, soime of these seem to be quite personally directed...
Huh

In my case, that's about the way I sleep... except I try to keep the wetting part in the toilet.

The judge does the 'hearing' and, often, the defendandant doesn't want to hear it, anyway.


U4EA wrote on Jun 11th, 2010 at 10:42pm:
Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?
At this point in time, I've been in a recent move but not a movie and I'm a bit short on furniture; since I currently haven't cable nor antenna, the TV may as well be useful.

Have you tried climbing the things on the ground to see their tops. Which giant are you intending to ask to bend over?


U4EA wrote on Jun 11th, 2010 at 10:42pm:

They want to make sure they keep their composure during your visit and their laughter for later.


U4EA wrote on Jun 11th, 2010 at 10:42pm:
Why is 'bra' singular and 'panties' plural?
You've given me one I'm unsure of -- one raises a couple of points but the other puts it full of holes


U4EA wrote on Jun 11th, 2010 at 10:42pm:

That's the old-fashioned 'dieter's' setting.

like I've said before, who cares?

First, is this a multiple burial?
