In a rather random conversation this weekend I came up with a list of some of the things I always wanted to know...I share them with you now in hopes that someone out there will be able to answer one or two of them for me:
Why was Smurfette the only girl smurf? This question has plagued me since my childhood.
Why did the Jetsons still have highways in space...and traffic jams? Its space for crying-out-loud!
Another Jetsons question. When the policeman pulls you over in space he has an air helmet on much like astronauts wear now...but the bubble dome on George's car always just lifts right up. Why does the cop need an oxygen bubble, but the vacuum of space doesn't suck George's brain out of his ears without one?
Who gets to have vending machines in the white house...coke or pepsi? I wonder this because in the vast majority of buildings you have to pick one or the other. If this is how it works for the white house does the President get to pick which vendor gets to bring frosty beverages in?
Was bugs bunny a transvestite or was he really just messing with Elmer Fudd?
Does the fact that your finger fits perfectly in your own nose, but not nearly as well in someone elses' prove that there is a God...or does it just prove that we spend too much of our childhood with our fingers up our noses?
If anyone can provide any nuggets of wisom regarding these dilemas I would welcome them!!

Here are your answers, as requested:
1) The smurfs were communists. Note the resemblance of Papa Smurf to Marx. Smurfette is the communal wife Marx describes in the Communist Manifesto. See here.
2) Jetsons-era bureaucracy. And you think ours is bad...
3) Policemen from the future breathe cyanide. It's a natural progression from cops today.
4) Most government agencies have Coke. But in the White House, vending machines only dispense the blood of terrorists. Executive order.
5) Tranny or not, Bugs made a hot woman bunny.
6) Neither. I'm sure it has something to do with that golden ratio. Or not.
Toby I appreciate you more every day!!! Why I didn't just come to you with these questions in the first place is beyond me. Clearly you do have all the answers...blast.
