WOW, that's alot of questions, but I'll do my best to answer them.
1) The sun bleaches your hair, which is why it gets lighter, but your skin produces melanin to protect itself when exposed to sunlight for a long time, which makes it darker.
2) Because opening their mouths helps to stretch their face so it gets applied correctly, like when men scrunch their faces when shaving.
3) It doesn't stick to the inside of the bottle because it hasn't dried yet, which is why you need to be careful with superglue, because it will dry up inside the tube after exposed to air.
4) I have never seen that headline, but maybe it's an ethical thing about not using their powers to benefit themselves.
5) The length of the word isn't related to the meaning of the word, but you can make it shorter: abbrev.
6) It's square because the boxing regulations stated the size and shape of it, which happen to be square.
7) So the body won't fall out when the coffin is being moved, and to discourage graverobbers, which was a problem many years ago.
8) According to Wikipedia: ';Practice or practise (verb form in British English) is the act of rehearsing a behavior over and over, or engaging in an activity again and again, for the purpose of improving or mastering it.'; (thank you Wikipedia!)
9) Rain is more aerodynamic than snow so it falls straight down. Snow falls in flakes which falls like leaves do, since they're lighter weight and the air catches them.
10) It's the Start button, but it also gives you many more options like the Control Panel, Documents, Printer settings, and much more.
11) It helps you to concentrate since you're limiting the amount of incoming data you have to process. Also, so that if you have to phone for directions the radio's already turned lower.
12) The citric acid in the detergent helps clean the dishes, but it's also very bitter, so it needs to have additives to make it more palatable. That, and preservatives are added to increse shelf life.
13) Broker is another name for mediator, and that's what they do: They mediate the transactions between the different parties involved.
14) Because it measures seconds. The other two hands are the hour hand and the minute hand. Since they're not really labeled, you can think of the second hand as the 'second' hand, and redesignate the hour hand and minute hands the first and third hands. But since most people have digital watches nowadays, it's not as signifigant anymore.
15) It's a result of people trying to rush someplace all at the same time. And since there's more traffic than the highways' ability to move them, the opposite result is what actually happens.
16) That IS their name, just like 'the back of your hand' is on the other side of the palm.
17) Most domesticated cats have never seen a mouse, let alone know what to do with one. I'm sure the cat food manufacturers tested all kinds of different flavors and that one probably didn't test very well with cats. If cats won't eat it it doesn't make sense to make it for them.
18) No, it becomes an abused animal. Kitty litter is a clay-based absorbant material that cats use to simulate the ground they use as their bathroom. It's good on icy sidewalks, too!
19) If you spin ANYONE around several times they become disoriented. I know I do!
20) It sure is, and the advertisers on AM radio would agree! The 'AM' in radio stands for Amplitude Modulation, which is how the radio wave is modulated for broadast (as opposed to modulating the frequency for FM); the 'a.m.' in time stands for ante meridium (which is Latin for 'before mid-day). It can be confusing if you don't know which AM you're talking about.
21) It depends on what dialect of Chinese they're speaking. I don't know Chinese, but I'm sure it translates to 'plates'.
22) They're all called ladybugs, just like all flies are called flies and mosquitoes are called mosquitoes. Maybe it's an insect thing.
23) I think they put whatever the haircolor is for the rest of the hair he or she has. Maybe from their eyebrows or facial hair (if they have any).
24) I guess it's a common medical practice to sterilize all needles, regardless of what they're going to be used for. I can't imagine anyone buying or ordering needles and not expecting to get sterilized ones.
25) It's actually a pair of pantlegs (each leg is a pantsleg), so a pair of pantslegs eventually was shortened to just 'pants'. A brasserie (that's the full name for a bra) is just called a bra.
26) I'm sure if you bought a tourist hunting license you could shoot them, just like you need a rabbit hunting license or duck hunting license to shoot either of them during rabbit season or duck season (respectively).
27) The drivers license proves that you're old enough to buy the alcohol, but you can also use a state non-driving license to prove age as well. Most people drive to where they buy the alcohol and then drive it to where it will be consumed, if for no other reason than because it's easier than carrying it as you walk.
28) Because the root word is 'phoneticus', and from that we get the word 'phonetic'. Why they spelled it that way I do not know.
29) They're called Interstate highways based on where the funding for building and maintaining them comes from. Federal funds usually pay for Interstates and State funds pay for U.S. routes. It also has to do with speed on the road and the access to them; interstates have more limited access.
30) If the plane is falling, there's no time to strap on a parachute and jump before the plane hits (or train people on how to use them). If the plane lands on water, there's usually time to get everyone out and the flotation devices are there to help keep people from drowning.
31) It's prohibited, but if you've ever been to North Carolina or South Carolina you can see people doing it. Usually people buy things at the gas stations and use them elsewhere. Also, since most gas stations are open 24 hours a day, and they're in alot of locations, it makes it easier for people (whether driving or not) to buy cigarettes at any time, day or night.
32) I haven't, but hypothetically it could exist.
33) Usually the drivers report to work long before the snow even starts to fall. I've seen them sitting on the sides of the road and in shopping center parking lots hours before the snow comes.
34) If the store is robbed or the employee has to leave to go to the hospital or fill out robbery paperwork they have to be able to secure the store. Some 7-11's are closed on Christmas or other holidays if they can't find someone to work the shifts.
35) It would be too heavy to fly, or would cost too much to fly due to the increased weight. Another reason the black box is so tough is because of the size. Since it's so small (compared to the size of an airplane) it's alot more durable. Planes don't stay rigid in flight, either. If you've ever sat in a window seat you can see the wings flexing up and down.
36) Tyranny. The firefighter and crime fighter fight AGAINST fire and crime. The freedom fighter fights FOR freedom.
37) It's a petroloeum by-product, which is why it's ggod for moisturizing, since it's water-repellent. It's also called mineral oil.
38) If it's a calf then it's possible since they drink milk. How you'd make a cow laugh is beyond me. They are notoriusly serious, trust me.
39) Other than the lights coming on, I don't think you'd notice a difference since there probably wouldn't be anything for the light to reflect off of. If you're going that fast you want to make sure there's alot of space (no pun intended) around you. As I heard on Start Trek Voyager once ';Faster than light, no left or right';, since you have to move in a straight line at that speed.
40) People walk up to the ATMs at the banks, even in the drive-throughs, and it's also to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
41) Both words are interchangeable, and anything transported is technically a 'shipment'.
42) For the same reason humans don't. Your skin will absorb some of the water (like when you get pruny after a long bath), but the bone and muscle underneath don't shrink when they get wet, so you don't shrink when you get wet. Unlike llamas, sheep also have lanolin in their hair which help repel water.
43) Maybe because you're apart from the people in the section next to you?
44) It would seem so. But imagine how scary it would be if they actually accomplished everything they wanted to!
45) Because it's 'terminal' means 'end' (like in the end of the flight). A terminal illness is one that causes your life to end.
WHEW! That's alot of work, even for a llama! I need to take a break now!Helloo! funny/interesting questions for you!?
Thank you very much! It's good to know that hard work and determination pays off in the end!
