The Question-Question Thread

[CaptainQuark]

Would you be surprised if we said "Yes"?

 

[nixgeek]

So does that mean I'm not a geek?!?!

 

[Arden]

Aren't you the only person who can make that judgment?

 

[pds]

What's the name of the guy who plays first base?

 

[Arden]

For which team?

 

[Randman]

Who's on first ... isn't he?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

Is this conversation (if asking questions could be understood as some sort of conversation) somehow related to baseball?

 

[Randman]

Or could it be about Abbott & Costello?

 

[Cat]

You mean Elvis Costello?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

Who is Elvis Costello?

 

[andychrist]

So is Elvis Costello on first?

 

[Cat]

Who is ... ? tsk: Google is your friend ...

Is it surprising that the iPod Shuffle is already back-ordered for weeks?

 

[Randman]

Does this mean my shuffle will be delayed?

 

[CaptainQuark]

Isn't Google supposed to be so fast (allegedly) that it won't delay your shuffle?

 

[Randman]

What does Google have to do with an iPod shuffle?

 

[Arden]

If Google and iPod Shuffle are standing in opposite corners of a room, and there is a hundred dollar bill in the middle, what is the least amount of air it takes to make an aluminum can float to the surface of a pool?

 

[Randman]

Is the answer 42?

 

[Arden]

Maybe, but 42 what?

 

[Randman]

Life, the universe, everything?

 

[pds]

But, wouldn't the answer depend upon how many lab mice were listening to the iShuffle?
