Why has "monosyllabic" got 5 syllables?
If you ate Pasta and Antipasto, would you still be hungry?
What do you do if an endangered animal is eating an endangered plant ?
There is a fine line between fishing and standing on the shore looking like an idiot.

I'm not sure if I have missed the point of this thread, but it looks like a lot of people are having sleepless nights for no good reason:
Snow Plough Drivers get to work by setting off as soon as the first flakes begin to fall, so my girlfriend tells me, her uncle drives one.
Trains into the underground? most of the outlying tube stations are above ground, and the trains go underground via tunnels as they approach central London.
Orange Jam/Marmalade - some believe that this comes from the fact that 'orange jam' was believed to have great curative properties and comes from 'Ma malade' (approx. = my illness).
Teflon stick to frying pans?
I seem to recall some TV program (probably Johnny Ball) saying that they stick the frying pan into acid first, then neutralize the acid, this causes lots of very small fissures on the frying pan which the liquid Teflon fills, when it dries it is firmly attached to the frying pan!!
"If the human race evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?"
To fill the scribbly desks at Binnsworth and Hand-Brake house, it's only a shame the RAF don't train them a bit better.

Why when the sign says Wet Paint have we a urge to touch it?

If you want to see baby pigeons go to Scarborough. On the seeward side of the Grand Hotel all the window sills have one or two pigeons nest piles on the with the birds hatching their eggs.
Who thought it would be a good idea to inform people clambering-up into the back of a Hastings that Smoke Floats, and if we humans are superior to apes, why do we need both hands to unpeel a banana, when a chimp can do the same with one?

Actually - you do see baby pigeons, it's just that the differences are VERY small. It's all to do with the soft nostrils. Not many pilots know that - or care!

Why did John Eacott resurrect a 17 year old thread?
Where did House Martins nest before houses?
Were there Hedge Sparrows before hedges?
Why aren't hills in a field called Field Gulls?
Chips aren't cheap.
Where did Starlings gather before telephone wires and electricity cables?
