Lone Star Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Kind of reminds me of that old Art Linkletter television show called, "Kids Say The Darndest Things!" Just wait till the newbie starts asking questions too! ROFLMAO Take comfort though Ruffles, that your son is asking questions. That means he's wanting to learn! LS *pokes the Ruffles,Jr*...ask your dad why ice cream causes 'freeze brain', and where yawns come from...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosgrojo Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 This is a standard week of questions by both my son and my sunday school kids You can answer any of them except number 10. 1. Why is blood red? Because red means stop... and it is important to stop all bleeding. 2. Where do babies come from? Mommies 3. Why are there craters on the moon Where else would we put them? 4. If you were a super hero who would you be and what would your super power be? Stretch Armstrong... for obvious reasons. 5. Why is the sky blue? The sun's rays hit the Earth's atmosphere, where the light is scattered by nitrogen and oxygen molecules in the air. The blue wavelength of this light is affected more than the red and green wavelengths, causing the surrounding air to appear blue. At sunset, the sun's light passes farther through the atmosphere, deflecting and decreasing the blue in the air. Scattering by dust particles and pollution in the air causes the sunset to appear red. 6. Where do babies come from? Didn't you hear me the first time? Mommies. 7. Tell me about the birds and the bees Birds poop on your freshly washed car, and bees sting you. 8. What is your favorite weapon Preparation. 9. Did you know Barack Obama is our First Black president? What???? Where have I been? 10. Who was the best president, George Bush or Barack Obama 11. Can we go back to Baltimore and do the pedal boats Sure... any excuse to go to Baltimore for a pit-beef sandwich. Yummy. 12. Dad, when are you going to quit being on the ambulance and go back to travelling for work. (tough and loaded question) Are you trying to get rid of me? These are the questions in just one week that I can remember off the top of my head. Now how was your week? Not as difficult as yours Ruff... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustdevil Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 9. Did you know Barack Obama is our First Black president? At least he recognises that any degree of blackness -- no matter how slight -- means you're black. Kudos for teaching him right. Does he also know that he's our first Muslim president?

HERBIE1 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Good stuff. Geez, I wish my kids asked such pointed questions. They went through the "why" phase, as many kids do, which made for nearly endless conversations. At the end of these sessions I would usually really want to answer with ""Because I said so!", but always refrained... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Star Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Don't you hate it when you catch yourself thinking and saying the same things your dad thought and said to you as a kid? You know, one of the most AGGRIVATING sayings my father had was when he'd ask you a question (usually after you did something REALLY stupid), to which you would reply, "I don't know.".... His reply to that was, "I don't know isn't an answer!" That used to drive me absolutely wall climbing nuts! One day my step daughter (yes folks, I WAS married at one time!) did something really 'numbskull-ish', and I asked her why she did it. Her reply was (yep, you guessed it), "I don't know." Before I could even think of something to say, I heard my father's words coming out of MY mouth...."I don't know isn't an answer!" I actually stood there, and slowly turned around; expecting to see the 'old man' standing there laughing at me..... The more I fought against being like him only served to make me even more like him....*sighs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drives me crazy, but as the saying goes, the older you get, the smarter your parents become... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
