Finally, answers to all my burning questions

Question everything. Hold on to the good.

the apostle Paul, 1 Thessalonians 5:21, TLB


With something akin to evil glee, I discovered a new web program. Even in its conceptual state, its potential for helping me fritter away my dubious free moments is staggering. Humans (and dragons much more so) are created to question.

As I stared at its enticing invitation, I momentarily was blank, unable to select a single inquiry from the myriad potentialities that filled my mind. Then, slowly at first, and later like a flood, my inner queries poured out.

The inane --
What causes hiccups?
Which was the first book ever written?
How do you play senet?

The hopeless --
What really works on stretch marks? And snoring?
How do you stop cat fights?
Where do you find good herbs, good mechanics and good men?
Is there any form of drama-free employment?

And the deep --
Is there really free will?
What's really out there?
What happens next?
Why are we here?

Thankfully, Yahoo has anticipated my previously undiscovered need for answers. You may never see me again, as I predict this will be even more addictive than blogging.
