Many answers

A 'best by' date is placed on all packaged foodstuffs and drinks by law. This does not mean that the product will be bad after that date but it is a way of ensuring that goods are sold whilst still fresh. It also stops 'stockpiling' which is where goods are bought cheaply then stored until the price rises. Although water in it's pure state of H2O cannot deteriorate bottled water contains other substances that can.

Sneezing and farting together is not harmful, neither can either cause a vacuum. A sneeze comes from your lungs and a fart from your colon, neither of which are anywhere near your stomach.

As long as a name is not considered offensive it may be used so 'Anonymous', although rather silly, would be accepted as a valid name. Certain names are not allowed in some countries. For example in England you may not be named Earl or Prince or King or, in fact, any name that could make people think that you had a Title when you didn't. In America, of course, such titles don't exist so you can have those names.

Depends on what type of braces you mean. If they hold your trousers up they would be taken off. If on your teeth they would be removed.

Toy hippos, like many toy animals, come in a variety of colours which are designed to be attractive to children, most of whom would not have seen the real animal anyway. The colour is irrelevant.

Planes are made ourt of very strong and resilient materials. The 'black box', or flight recorder is not indestructible and it is not black. It is made with a strong case in the hope that in the event of a crash it may be found intact with valuable data stored inside. If it is destroyed then the data is lost too. Flight recorders are coloured bright orange so as to be easily seen. The term 'black box' is just one that has been used by the media over the years and has become common parlance.

ATM's can be used by passengers as well as drivers. If the pasenger is blind Braille may be a necessity. Don't forget that cars have windows by the rear seat too.

Answer 3

Because water can become stagnant due to the lack of the natural process of evaporation and condensation.

No. Nature abhors a vacuum.

In some states, YES

Who is this "they" you are talking about? It depends on how you died and who is in charge of the funeral arrangements. You can always put it in your last will and testiment that if you die with braces on, you want them either left on or taken off. Does it really matter since your mouth would be closed anyway.

Because blue and purple are more attractive for kids to look at and a tiny brown hippo looks like a lump of doo doo. It's all about sales. $$$$$

Because the material out of which the tiny black box is heavy. If an entire plane were made out of it, the plane would never leave the ground. Trust me, if you knew exactly how a plane was made, you would think twice before getting in it.

So blind people can get money out of the machines. Haven't you ever seen a taxi cab before? Even though they are blind, blind people still need money, just like everyone else.

Answer 4

1 for the same reason sour cream containers carry an expiration date, probably concocted by the same damn bureaucratic agency

2 Yes, which is why you must never, I repeat NEVER sneeze and fart simultaneously.

3 Possibly, I do know it is illegal to name your kid a number, i.e. 12345.

4 I hadn't noticed, but maybe coz brown has no appeal to the kids who are badgering their parents to buy them a stuffed hippo.

5 The scientific answer is coz titanium (the substance in question) would make the plane too heavy to get off the ground, But personally, I'd say: "Oh yeah? Prove it.".

6 Diplomatic answer: political correctness run amok. More accurate answer: Proof positive that bureaucrats have the brains of a drunk, mentally-retarded chicken.

Answer 5

Everything that is sold to the public in an establishment must have an expiration date by law. Water can get stale.

If someone is cremated, everything that is metal must be taken off because it can conflict with the crematory matchine. If they are buried without being cremated then no.

You can name your child anonymous.

Not everyone is fully blind. The drive-by ATM's, you can also walk up to them and most blind people have someone there with them to help them get to the ATM in a vehicle.

The black box question is a good one, but I am sure there is a good reason why it can't happen.

Answer 6

1>to enable the guarantees such as one yesar guarantee,three months guarantee and some as a week guarantee.
2>try this with yourself.eat hundreds of cold ice-creams and as soon as you feel a fart and a cold sneeze,experiment it.if ur parents find it silly,dont tell my name.
3>what do you mean by yours?if you name it anonymous,and it gets famous when it grows up,its not important to tell how,if u want like the poets,name it anonymous.
5>ask the toy company.maybe they feel that developing or buying these colors are expensive.
6>i agree with u too.
7>maybe the driver is blind(just joking)or in some police cases the blind witness can be a witnass.

Answer 7

1. every food items and meds and cleaning stuff are required by law to have best if used by dates

2. nope

3. no they won't bother with that.

4. blue and purple color are more popular for kids and brown is not very appealing.

5. it a black box that records what is happening with the plane so if it crashed, it will record how it crashed.

6. to follow with ADA laws for the disability.

Answer 8

Maybe so the water doesn't taste stagnant or like plastic.
No. Sneeze comes from your lungs. Fart from your colon.
Yes.
Depends on what you want.
Color blind toy makers.
Too heavy, people inside would still not survive (unless they can make people out of the stuff).
Bureaucratic ADA rules!

Answer 9

Water can get stale just like anything elese can.

Lol I dont know I doubt it and dont really care.

No you can name your kid whatever u want.

No I would think they would keep your braces on you unless you where going to get cremated then maybe.

Ive seen toy hippos that where brown before.

I dont know ask someone who builds planes.

Because maybe the passenger is blind and dont want the driver to know his password. Blind people can have bank accounts to ya know.

Answer 10

The same reason we drive on parkways and park on driveways.
