Question time...

Questions no one is asking but should…

If God is love and love is blind and Ray Charles is blind does that mean that Ray Charles is God?

How could the Millennium Falcon make the Kessel Run in eight parsecs when a parsec is a unit of distance?

What if the hokey pokey really is what it is all about?

Is the best way to find who should lead your company in the future by running a game show?

Ok, so in Star Wars Luke is like, 19. And Obi-Wan has aged immensely, like forty years older than Ewan McGregor’s current age. And Chewbacca is going to be in Episode 3. Are there now like seven different timelines going on in the Star Wars universe? And don’t even get me started on Boba Fett…

Is there anything cooler than hearing “New episode of Family Guy on Sunday”?

When a band like Poison goes out on tour, do they think that they are impressing anybody? Or are they just happy to have the gig?

(This question was actually posed to me in college): “Whose career path would you rather have: Guns N’ Roses or Michael Jackson?”

Dude, what’s up with that fifth dentist?

(To paraphrase the Handsome Family): If your life lasted only one day, at what point would you be drunk?

Whatever happened to Melissa Joan Hart? Did she fall into the same black hole as Rachel Leigh Cook and Jennifer Love Hewitt? Had we just met our quota on three name actresses?

How can we fight a war for oil and I still end up paying twenty five bucks to fill up my car?

How do we know that the earth isn’t shaped like a Frisbee?

Will asking questions ever get boring?

(Not very likely. Real post tomorrow)

Q: Ok, so in Star Wars Luke is like, 19. And Obi-Wan has aged immensely, like forty years older than Ewan McGregor’s current age. And Chewbacca is going to be in Episode 3. Are there now like seven different timelines going on in the Star Wars universe? And don’t even get me started on Boba Fett…

A: In 'Ep. IV: A New Hope' Anakin/Darth Vader is 41 yrs old, Obi-Wan is 57, Luke and Leia are 18 (Leia is legal!). Han Solo is 29, Chewbacca is 200 years old, Palpatine/Emperor is 82, Yoda is 896. I'm not exactly sure of Boba Fett's age, but he saw his father killed by Mace Windu 22 years before A New Hope. The problem isn't with the timeline, its with the casting.

Q: “Whose career path would you rather have: Guns N’ Roses or Michael Jackson?”

A: That's easy. G 'n R by a landslide.

Q: Whatever happened to Melissa Joan Hart? Did she fall into the same black hole as Rachel Leigh Cook and Jennifer Love Hewitt? Had we just met our quota on three name actresses?

A: No. You forget about Sarah Michelle Gellar, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Evan Rachel Wood.

On a sidenote, if you saw Melissa Joan Hart on Cribs a few seasons ago, she had a South Bend, IN shot glass. What was she doing here? Well, her real-life sister went to SMC and the guy who played TV brother Ferguson on "Clarissa Explains It All" went to ND.

Q: How can we fight a war for oil and I still end up paying twenty five bucks to fill up my car?

A: Taxes. Take a look at the label on a gas pump to see how much of the price is attributed to taxes. Here in Wisconsin taxes make up about 48 cents per cost of a gallon.

Hey, it could be worse. Gas prices have not kept up with inflation. Also, in Europe its perfectly normal for gas prices to be above the equivalent of $5 per gallon.
