Some simple ones for ya to answer :
## If you rent a lottery ticket and you win the jackpot, what happens to the money ?
Half of it gets confiscated by the Income tax dept, and the other half gets confiscated by mother, wife, girlfriend - whoever can get their hands on it first.
## Why do people always end up saying "the sky is falling" ?
Sky is defined as the atmosphere above you, and like you know, the atmosphere consists of air and gases, which constantly rise and fall.
## There goes the saying that "the sun never sets on the British empire" .... However, We all know the sun rises every morning ... What's your opinion - is the sky too crowded with too many suns (especially in England)?
The days in Britain are long, and in summer the sun sometimes sets as late as 9. By then, all these 'academics' who make these comments have had too much to drink and already gone to sleep - so they never see it setting.
## If one wears the heart on the sleeve, where does he wear the kidneys ?
In his wallet. In case of an extremely desperate financial crunch, he can sell one off for a lot of money.
## In a garage sale, why cannot you buy the garage itself ?
Because it's hard to carry it back to your home. Unfortunately, most people who frequent garage sales don't think of bringing a crane along.
## Do you think droughts occur because God forgets paying his water bill from time to time ?
Droughts occur when rich farmers ignore or forget to pay their dues in the name of God - He sends a few warning letters and then finally cuts off the water supply.
## You're late for your deadline (let's say project submission). You xerox your watch ... does the help ? Explain why (or why not).
No, because then the excuse that "the photocopier wasn't working" goes out of the window.
## Some people appear bright until they open their mouth. Which expression am I referring to ?
They still have the same brightness, but fade in front of their newly exposed teeth, which appear much brighter.
As of now, this should suffice.
