1.What is the meaning of life?
Life doesn’t have a meaning, it has an existence. Stop trying to infer a meaning into everything.

2. Is there a God?
No.

3. Do blondes have more fun?
Yes, but they don’t know it – so it doesn’t count.

4. What is the best diet?
A BBQ’d steak with a nice hardy red wine and some French fries.

5. Is there anybody out there?
Everybody else.

6. Who is the most famous person in the world?
You of course. You know all about you.

7. What is love?
A 4 lettered word

8. What is the secret to happiness?
Don’t let life get you down, especially that part about it being meaningless.

9. Did Tony Soprano die?
Sooner of later.

10. How long will I live?
All of the way up to the end. My advice would be to not be there when it ends.
A sufficiently copious dose of bombast drenched in verbose writing is lethal to the truth.

There is nothing new under the sun.

~Ecclesiastes

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

How many beauties in a bevy?

If you were traveling at the speed of light in a '63 Chrysler Newport, and you turned on the head lights....

would anything happen?

If "the black box" always survives the crash, why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?

If Charles Foster Kane "died alone" how does anybody know that his last word was "rosebud"?

How come the ancient Egyptians, who left hieroglyphs on the walls of the pyramids explaining everything from how they made love to how they brewed beer, didn't bother to mention how they built the damn things?

Which direction is "under the sun" in space? And whose sun are we talking about? :D

If a man speaks in the forest and there are no women around to hear is he still wrong?
