No. Unless Aaron and Erin are siblings. Then it might be a little weird.

Why do clocks run clockwise?

I don't know. I have never met you or a Londoner, so I can't make an accurate comparison.

When a pothole is formed in a road, why do we never see the displaced concrete?

It gets tracked around by the tires of the unfortunate blokes who hit the pothole.

Is Anna Paquin beautiful or hot?

Um...I guess she's beautiful, although I don't really care. Now, Ewan McGregor is handsome and hot. :)

Yes, I am a "cat person."

Why do ketchup bottles have necks so narrow that a spoon won't fit inside?

I'm a cat person too, as my screen name will attest to.

What is your favorite kind of cat? I love them all, especially Siamese and tabbies.

While I love all kitties, I very much love the big fluffy ones with long tails and whiskers. My most favorite breed of cat is the Maine Coon, and I have one, named Zeus, who has been my best friend and confidant for six and half years. I especially like big fluffy kitties who have a diesel-engine purr.

My question is this: How do they keep the raisins in cereal boxes from falling to the bottom?

Raisins are actually added to boxes only after more than half of the cereal has already been packed. The cereal thus has a chance to settle and condense. During average shipping conditions, boxes get jostled a bit, so the raisins actually sift and become evenly distributed throughout the box.

The square root of 2 is an infinite nonrepeating decimal.

In honor of Season Six of 24 starting up on Sunday, I felt the need to give Calvin a rest. But never fear, CockneyRebel, for here is my old Avatar:

I am pretty sure that I will be putting it back up in a week or so after I get the first four hours of 24 into my system.

Why do mens bicycles have a cross bar?

Sorry, Tinky, I just noticed this.

I found college to be different than high school, but not necessarily easier. This is probably because even when I first started college I wasn't interested in meeting people, and didn't notice. What I did noticed is that I had the same study/school habits that I did in high school, the difference being, of course, that there was no hand-holding like you see in high school regarding grades. In college, you're on your own. That is what is different.

Are people less artificial? I dunno. I think that it depends.

I am now happy to report that after two years of abject failure at college, I just passed every single one of my classes from last semester. Every. single. one. That is a triumph.

College is a little easier in that there are more classes to choose from and a wider variety of teachers in charge of those classes, which increases the probability that you will find at least one class/professor you enjoy. You also have greater control over your schedule. And perhaps my most favorite part of college is the ability to choose classes that I am interested in, even "required classes." You will find that even "required classes" differ in their enjoyment, and one of my favorite classes so far has been an entry-level freshman economics class.

So I will say that college is definitely different than high school while not necessarily being easier.

Does that answer your question?

I started watching 24 during the second season in January of 2003 (probably the 7th, since that is when the epsiode was released.) I hadn't heard of it before, and I just randomly happened to stop on Fox when 24 was on. I now know that it was Season Two, Episode 9 (4:00 PM - 5:00 PM). There was a plane crash and some desperate/evil-looking terrorist lady holding this guy hostage with a serious automatic weapon. I had to stay tuned to see what was going on, and I was hooked.

Alternative, have you ever seen an episode of 24?
