Here is a link to a list of "13 things that don't make sense". From the placebo effect to Cold Fusion.

If you figure one out please let me know.

man, I am getting slow, and will have to relenquish my geek status soon if it keeps up, because for the first time, 42 didn't come up as my first thought for the answer. :hang head in shame:

The problem with 42 is, of course, that you can't know the answer to life, the universe, and everything, and the answer at the same time. Therefore, these must be easier questions. So, if you came up with 42 that quickly, just think how easily you'll be able to come up with the right answers once you put your shoulder into it.

Then again, one could always just kick back and enjoy a nice Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster.:cheers:

I'm wondering if, on April 9th, when I turn 43, I will no longer be the answer to the mystery of the universe?

I know you thought I said what I meant to say, but what I really meant was what I think I'm saying now. Toot!
