Questions, Questions, Who's Got Questions?

[tiger_spot]

I'm bored. That makes it an excellent time for Random Question Day. Got random questions? I've got random answers. (Possibly also carefully-constructed nonrandom answers. Depends how interesting the question is.)

Why is a kazoo?

[tiger_spot]

Left at the first light, right at Albuquerque, and straight on 'til morning. You can't miss it.

Blue menthol fish sticks in trees.

Well, if it resists then obviously you need to go back and work on the basic desensitization more. Try starting from the beginning in a different location.

[tiger_spot]

Two and a half hours. Followed by TRIUMPH!

(I can spell, really I can.)

What goes with squash ravioli?

[tiger_spot]

Tuscan kale salad, roasted asparagus, tomato-basil-mozzerella bruschetta, and/or something involving spinach and pine nuts.

[tiger_spot]

Though this time of year I might go for sun-dried tomatoes on the bruschetta, unless you have a tomato-based sauce for the ravioli. I like sun-dried tomatoes.

(I recommend either a pesto or a cream sauce with squash ravioli, though.)

[mrissa]

Gorgonzola cheese sauce with dried sour cherries and walnuts.

Why is my romantic life nonexistent? And if prunes are dried plums, what the hell is prune juice?

[ckd]

Can't help you with the first one.

As for the second one: a warrior's drink.

1. Probably you are just an unlucky introvert. Have you tried asking your friends to introduce you to eligible persons of your general preferences? It's old-fashioned but reasonably likely to result in a pleasant evening. Or you could move out to the Bay Area; that seems to work for a lot of people.

2. Ooh! I know this! Prune juice isn't really juice in the same way that, say, orange juice is. It's made by taking the prunes (dried already) and stewing them in water, so it's more like an extract or sort of fruit tea.

[eyeteeth]

So you take the water out of the plum and then soak the resulting dried plum in different water? What the hell kind of farcical exercise is that?

If a woodchuck chucked wood at the top of the Great Pyramid, would it make a sound?

[tiger_spot]

Yes. There would be a kind of rattling bouncing sound all the way down, and then from off-screen a humorous camel squeal.
