2. IF MAN EVOLVED FROM MONKEYS AND APES, WHY DO WE STILL HAVE MONKEYS AND APES?

3. I WENT TO A BOOKSTORE AND ASKED THE SALESWOMAN, "WHERE'S THE SELF- HELP SECTION?" SHE SAID IF SHE TOLD ME, IT WOULD DEFEAT THE PURPOSE.

6. IS THERE ANOTHER WORD FOR SYNONYM?

7. WHERE DO FOREST RANGERS GO TO "GET AWAY FROM IT ALL?"

8. WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU SEE AN ENDANGERED ANIMAL EATING AN ENDANGERED PLANT?

9. IF A PARSLEY FARMER IS SUED, CAN THEY GARNISH HIS WAGES?

10. WOULD A FLY WITHOUT WINGS BE CALLED A WALK?

11. WHY DO THEY LOCK GAS STATION BATHROOMS? ARE THEY AFRAID SOMEONE WILL BREAK-IN AND CLEAN THEM?

12. IF A TURTLE DOESN'T HAVE A SHELL, IS HE HOMELESS OR NAKED?

13. CAN VEGETARIANS EAT ANIMAL CRACKERS?

19. DOES THE LITTLE MERMAID WEAR AN ALGAEBRA?

20. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE A CIVIL WAR?

21. IF ONE SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMER DROWNS, DO THE REST DROWN TOO?

22. IF YOU ATE BOTH PASTA AND ANTIPASTO, WOULD YOU STILL BE HUNGRY?

23. IF YOU TRY TO FAIL, AND SUCCEED, WHICH HAVE YOU DONE?

24. WHY ARE HEMORRHOIDS CALLED "HEMORRHOIDS" INSTEAD OF "ASSTEROIDS"?

25. WHY IS IT CALLED TOURIST SEASON IF WE CAN'T SHOOT AT THEM?

26. WHY IS THERE AN EXPIRATION DATE ON SOUR CREAM?
