1. How can you tell when you run out of invisible ink? - You dont :???:

2. Could someone ever get addicted to counseling? If so, how could you treat them? - send them to a metal ward :lol:

3. Can you be a closet claustrophobic? -yes if your closet is a tight space.

4. Did Adam and Eve have navels? i dont know...... dont really know the story.

5. Does anyone ever vanish with a trace? - If its a crime or if they planned it and they did a bad job of covering it up.......yes.

6. How does the guy who drives the snowplow get to work in the mornings? -He takes the snowplow home in winter and to get to work if need be he can drive the snowplow. If the snow is not that bad he takes his regular car.

7. If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked? -Iwould say homeless. Cuz really, all animals exept humans are naked. (unless the human isint wearing any clothes)

8. If Fed Ex and UPS merge, would they call it Fed UP? I dont know...maybe? :???:

9. If a chronic liar tells you he is a chronic liar do you
believe him? -No, unless he is attached to a lied detector.

10. If a mute child swears, does his mother wash his hands
with soap? -No they just get in trouoble.

11. If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to see it, do the other trees make fun of it? I thought the saying went like this...If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to see it, does it make a sound.- Yes, of course if makes a sound, but no one hears it exept maybe the animals that live in the forest. To the first one- NO! Trees cant laugh.

12. If all those psychics know the winning lottery numbers, why are they all still working? - That is a good quiestion. To get more money? :???:

13. If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan? -I dont really know what TEFLON is.....and it comes in a pan? :???:

14. If olive oil comes from olives, where does baby oil come from?- Just look on the ingrediants on the baby oil bottle. DUH!

15. What would a chair look like if your knees bent the other way?- stange! :lol:

16. If pro is the opposite of con, is progress the opposite of congress? No the oppisite of Progress is failure or something like that. Congress has to do with it

17. If quitters never win, and winners never quit, who came up with, "Quit while you're still ahead?" -That is a real good question. :???:

18. If the Energizer Bunny atttacks someone, is it charged with battery?- The energizer bunny is not real. If he was he would be locked up becouse he would be the only battery-powed bunny. He would be worth lots of money.

19. If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? - tying up the loose ends! :lol:

20. What did we do before the Law of Gravity was passed?- THe law of Gravity was not passed in the Government like a normal law. No one knew of Gravity unti Issac Newton figured out that thats what was holding us apon the earth. Gravity was always here.

21. What happens if you get scared half to death twice? - If you really get so scared your heart stopped and you died, you cant die twice, plus who would be stupid enough to try and scare a dead body?

22. Why are we afraid of falling? Shouldn't we be afraid of the sudden stop? - Thats a pretty good question, I guess it has to do with ppl's psychological make-up.

23. Why do airlines call flights nonstop? Don't they all stop eventually? -It means that they dont stop in one contry then to the last destination. (i think thats what It means)

24. Why is the alphabet in that order? - I dont know. :???:

25. Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds? Well why isinst phone spelled the way it sounds? ph can make the 'f' sound

26. You know how most packages say "Open here" What is the protocol if the package says, "Open somewhere else?" - I doubt that a box would say that. IF there is not particular place to open it, it wouldnt say anything in the box.

27. You know that little indestructible black box that is used on planes, why can't they make the whole plane with the same substance? - It might be to heavy.

28. Sooner or later, doesn't EVERYONE stop smoking? -yes when they die.

29. How do you know when it's time to tune your bagpipes? If there is a hole in the bag, it will not work. Thats how you can tell it needs to be fixed. Tuned? Do you tune a bagpipe? :???:

30. Why are there Braille signs on drive-up ATM's? I dont know really. :???:

31. If a fly looses its wings, is it called a Walk? No, of course not.

Um, actually no. If they left a trace, then people know that they are somewhere, espacially if they left a trail.

And about FedEx and UPS, there are rumors that if they become one company they will be called Fed UP.

How do you know if you've ran out of invisible ink? I think you could use a revealer to see if anything shows up.
