Just for the fun of it, how many of you out there remember some of the things that were asked in the 1960s and 1970s? For example: 'Can God dig half a hole?'; 'Why is life?' Any of you recall other odd questions, quotations?

Those trick questions have been asked for hundreds of years.
the wording may change but the questions remain the same.
Thank you very much, while you're up

My favorite! Picture yourself holding an object, anything. Now drop it to the floor or table. In order for it to hit the floor or table, it has to go half way. Right? Now hold it from THAT point(half way) and drop it again. It still has to go half that distance in order to hit the floor or table. In theory, we can keep slicing the distance in half forever! So why does the object hit the floor or table?
I love this one! Good luck!
