What if there were no hypothetical questions?

I've been, quite sadly, a bit behind on the blogging lately.

But I did manage to pop on over to the Beehives salon for some really intense, coffee house-style intellectual conversation this weekend-- yay!

Not only did we discuss whether one should be pro or anti Mariah Carey (we've decided that I'm Mariah-agnostic), but we also considered the following questions posed by a random scrap of paper:

If a turtle loses his shell, is he naked or homeless?
If all the nations in the world are in debt, where did all the money go?
If you try to fail, and succeed, what have you done?
Why don't psychics ever win the lottery?
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
If the "black box" flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn't the whole airplane made out of that stuff?
If buttered bread always lands on the butter-side down and a cat always lands on its feet, what happens if you strap buttered bread to a cat's back?
Why do they put Braille on the drive-through bank machines?
Whose cruel idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have a "S" in it?
