Welcome to the pond

Next, some Wednesday Weird Ones:

1. Why do doctors need malpractice insurance, but politicians, professional bowlers, secretaries, and spanish teachers don't?

I think the politicians probably have something to do with it!

2. Why are there jumbo size boxes of moth balls? Who needs all those moth balls - or any for that matter?

Well, because people don't need that many moth balls, selling them in a jumbo size is the only way for moth ball manufacturers to make any profit.

3. Is Dick Clark an evil robot? Why or why not?

I think scientists actually figured out human cloning in the 1950s and managed to make a few hundred clones of Dick Clark. That's why he keeps doing New Year's Eve each year. I think all the clones are kept in a secret warehouse somewhere in Brooklyn.

4. What would happen if you recorded a dog whistle on a cassette player and then played the cassette at a dog pound?

The RIAA would sue you for making an unauthorized recording of a dog whistle.

5. Why exactly are objects in the mirror closer than they appear? And if they're not where they appear, where exactly are they?

The politicians are probably responsible for this one too!
