stu999 Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Silly or serious answers welcome... Or indeed, join in with equally less important questions... 1. Whilst waitng for me chips tonight, I happened to notice a Mitsubishi L200, and it got me thinking. It was two-tone, black and silver. How is that actually done? I can't seem to picture someone masking off half the pick-up in readiness for the next colour... 2. Pootling home, with my chips filling the car with a wonderful aroma, my brain cell revisited something that I have not yet found a definate answer for. When travelling at, say, 30mph, what is best for fuel economy? To let the engine work a bit in 5th, or leave it in fourth? I know that petrol engined motors tend to give best economy if labouring slightly, as the throttle butterfly position is greater, allowing more air in per firing stroke, and in theory giving a more efficient burn. But this car is a 1.7 TD Cavalier - so the 'air' theory is irrelevant, as it doesnt have a throttle butterfly... 3. Where have all of the England flags gone? Quote
Tigger Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 1: Don't they just drive past 4 rollers (2 per side), one black, one white - Job done 2: Who gives a damn, I got a petrol and I just floor it all the time, can't be asked to think about butterflies, only the sunday driver in front of me 3: On the kerbs or hedges where they belong Tigger Quote
scruffythefirst Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 1, its quite easy to mask half a car, but i expect mitsubishi dip the bottom half in one colour and then turn it over and dip the other half. Or was it front and back 2 tone? Diagonal 2, the least throttle you can give it as the ammount of fuel injected is purely throttle position, in a diesel anyway. 3, they've all been blown off and people have stopped replacing them Quote

It's said that Ants would survive a Nuclear War If their so clever Why don't they walk in a Straight line 2. What were the names of the Bannana Splits 3.

stu999 Posted July 5, 2006 Author Posted July 5, 2006 1. It's said that Ants would survive a Nuclear War If their so clever Why don't they walk in a Straight line 2. What were the names of the Bannana Splits 3. What are the Origins of Dirty Dogg Racing 1. Ant's ain't stupid. Travelling in straight lines is no fun - corners are better! 2. Dunno. I remember Bananarama better... Perhaps Bananaman will know? 3. It just kinda happened... Quote

Tigger Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 If the meaning of life if 42, does that mean there's no point in living after 42? Quote

Boomy Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 What is the average height one should jump when quietly making a cup of tea in the kitchen at 3.00 am (with the lights dimmed) when ones TOM TOM that was left switched on declares "AT THE ROUNDABOUT TURN LEFT" ?. Quote
Buzz Billsberry Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 the meaning of life is 42 Incorrect 42 is the answer to the most important question in the universe. As for ants, their just really agressive insects who can't drive and really ain't too bothered about fish & chips>their goal is to take over the planet And Bannaman only splits when its his round!

Ahh boomy, that’s an easy one. 1st leap 8ft into the air, knock your tea over during the ascent which will by some incredible power manage with split second timing on your descent tip down your front, burn your leg and blow the tom-tom via a short circuit. What you will need to do then is take your trolleys off and put them in the wash basket, stand the Tom-tom upright to let the tea drain away. Apply cream to your leg to stop the burning sensation then; obviously go change your boxers as the fright induced smell is just a little too strong to handle...oh and clean the rest of the spilt tea up!!
