Did you ever wonder…

by Rick Baker
On Jul 6, 2010
…why being described as “stunning” is a great while being described as “stunned” is not?
 
…if people who watch horror movies are more inclined to embrace Change?
 
…how many substances behave like water, shrinking when heated and expanding when cooled?
 
…if the Internet will commoditize trust?
 
…why Saturn got those pretty rings while the rest of our planets did not?
 
…when the Greeks first used Arabic numerals?
 
…if it is sheer coincidence that the greatest modern physicist was named after one beer glass?
 
…if there is only one word in the English language that ends with the letters “mt”?
 
…why the Sun isn’t getting a bit more blame for global warming?
 
…if Dog The Bounty Hunter could catch Osama Bin Laden?
 
…why whoever made up our alphabet messed up the letter “w” so badly?
 
…why Evolution hasn’t come up with something less violent than the sneeze?
 
…if the bottled-water market is saturated?
