The Friday Fix is a takeover of my Friday blog post by other bloggers who have volunteered their time and energy to "star" in their very own guest post on Friday. Only one mandatory rule (you can't get out of it!) - you must answer five of the most random questions I throw your way. The rest is up to you. Remember, if you'd like to be featured on the Friday Fix, send me an email, and let me know! So, without further ado, here are the Khadija from Black Fingernailed Reviews!

The Most Random Questions in the World...

1. How far East do you have to go before you're heading West?

You'd have to keep going East until you figure out the only way to go West is to make a u-turn and go back the way you came. Sadly I have a horrible sense of direction so I'd probably never figure it out...
2. If, in baseball, a batter hits the ball and it splits, half of which is caught, and half of which flies out of the park, what is the final ruling?

My brain tells me that will never happen, but what does my brain know? (Nothing about baseball that's for sure...) There's always room for improvement to old and long-standing rules, so to make it fair both the batter and...whatever you call the person who catches the ball, should get half a point.

3. Can animals commit suicide?

It's sad to think about but animals can get upset, even depressed. My tailless cat (who is named Stubby) got depressed after our two guinea pigs (Jack Sparrow and Brownie) died; because she no longer had tinny living creatures to continuously torment. She stopped eating for a while, and I'm quite sure she could have died from that, well ya know if all the running head first into doors didn't get to her first. Luckily we moved into a house with a humungo backyard and Stubzy was let lose among the furry and feathery creatures that inhabited it to torment and chase to her heart’s content. Wait...that didn't really answer the question. What I meant to say is yes, yes I think they can.

4. Why aren't curtains double-sided so they look good both in and outside your house?

*sigh* Because most people never want to spend more money than they have to, or they just don't think curtains are worth the effort. I guess it's more important what's on the inside than what's on the outside...or maybe they just care more about what people on the inside of their house think about its appearance than the people on the outside.

5. Were there woodpeckers on Noah's Ark, and if so...where the heck did he keep them? 
Oh that's easy; he put corks on the ends of their peckers. The real question is what the heck did he do with the termites.

-----------------------------------

Khadija, you had me at peckers. Oh, wait...that sounded wrong. Anyhoo *whistles innocently* love your answers! It's TOO much fun to see what everyone comes up with, and I totally agree with your thoughts on the curtains! To all of you, be sure to check out Khadija's amazing blog, Black Fingernailed Reviews. She's got an awesome blog full of fun and sass...by far the best combo!

The Most Random Questions in the World...

1. When does something stop being vintage and start being antique?

When I think vintage, I think cool and hip like my Backstreet Boys CDs and my Care Bears blanket. When I think of antiques, I think of things like my Caboodle or my crimper. So I'm going to go ahead and say something turns antique when it's too old to be considered cool anymore. (This is all subjective, of course)

2. How does a real estate of office sell their office without causing confusion?

That would be very tricky. I think the best way to go about this would be to hire a guy to stand outside of the office in a banana suit singing a fun little ditty to everyone who came by. You always look at the guy dressed up as a hot dog or some other food right? So you would have to pay attention to what he had to say.

3. Where does a toetag on a dead person go if they have no toes?

That's a very good question. I wonder why he/she doesn't have any toes... perhaps an unfortunate ice skating incident? Anyways, I guess the tag would have to go on one of their fingers because that's the closest thing to a toe. I bet the strings aren't long enough to go around their ankle.

4. Why can ghosts walk through walls and doors, but they never fall through floors?

I think the commander of all ghosts decided that being a ghost sucked pretty bad, so he/she decided to give them a little break and give them the ability to float around their chosen haunting ground. That way, they could still move from room to room through the walls, but they wouldn't have to worry about falling through the floor. Unless of course, they decide they want to fall through so they can go downstairs, in which case they just will themselves to fall and voila!

5. Why do we call beans "the magical fruit" if they are vegetables?

Beans are called the magical fruit because we all know the only thing beans are good for is an amazingly-immature-but-ever-hilarious tune to sing when we were younger (or just yesterday...). Could you imagine singing "Beans, beans, the magical vegetable, the more you eat, the more you you become incapable?! Completely ruins the whole point of the song. And makes for a very boring childhood.
