Laundry Foul?

So I was watching some football today and I got to wondering. When referees do their laundry, do they wash their shirts in the white or the dark load?

John HanCROCK?

Let's say you go down to the local courthouse to legally change your name. Do you sign your old name on the forms or your new name? If you sign your old name, then once the form is processed it is no longer valid because the person who signed it no longer exists. If you sign your new name, then that name isn't legal yet so the form can never be processed. Maybe you could just write "SEE ID"...

Stuck In The Middle

Imagine the globe. No matter where you stand on the globe, your feet will always face the center of the Earth, right? Ok, now dig a hole straight down from anywhere on the Earth. What happens when you reach the other side? You don't fall out because you just said that your feet are always on the ground...but if you flipped over some where during your digging you would have fallen back towards where you started. Isn't that weird?

One-Way History

You've probably all seen the picture below. It shows workers who built the transcontinental railroad and drove the golden spike at Promentory, Utah. Well I was wondering, if that was the only railroad at the time in that area, then did they drive the trains backwards all the way back to where they started from? This wasn't in the history books...

Five-O

Remember when you were younger and your teachers told you that you couldn't divide by zero when doing math or else the math police would get you? How about when your mom told you that you couldn't wear black pants with brown shoes or the fashion police would get you? Wouldn't it be funny if there really were the math police or the fashion police and they would slap handcuffs on you the second you put that brown shoe on?

My New Shoes

Can sports be philosophical?

You know how some athletes have weird superstitions? For example, Michael Jordan used to wear his old North Carolina shorts under his Chicago Bulls shorts. Do you think there are some athletes who had or have really strange superstitions but we never hear about them becauase they aren't as successful and never make it big? I guess we'll never know...
