I have another question for Alchemy: if mineral oil is made from minerals, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? 🙂

Or how about a more ticklish version:
If a person is tickled and no-one is around to see it, does the person laugh (and indeed, does it tickle)? :wooha:

Is life real, or all just an illusion?
Also, do we observe things because they happen, or do they happen because we observe them?
Gee, I'm getting a tad bit philosophical now, ain't I? 😛 :weird:

I'm still curious about the baby oil, which also raises a related question: if onion powder is made from dried onions, and garlic powder is made from dried garlic, then what is baby powder made from? 😉

The Hills are alive, with the sound of questions...
It wouldn't make a crashing sound, but it would make a satisfied noise if it fell on the passed out drunk guy...the squirrels would then celebrate by doing the time honored traditional happy squirrel dance which consists of prancing around the fallen tree, making a lot of "chirp chirp" noises and spending a great deal of time mucking about in the dirt. By sheer coincidence, however, this would be strikingly similar to the ancient porcupine mating dance that was abandonded long ago due to it not only being extremely exhausting, but also almost completely ineffective. A good human analogy would be dancing around a patch of mud, flinging oneself into said patch, and then sloshing around spasmatically while singing Barry White. 😎

Ques-tions, more than meets the eye
Well Val, The Sound of One Hand Clapping is actually an indi-rock band out of Pittsburg. The best way to describe their music is somewhere inbetween avant-pop and country with a hint of noise thrown in. Personally, I don't like indi-rock, but whatever. Thanks for the question and Rock On! 😎

We're off the see the quesiton....
Well Val-y of the Questions, you would actually be surprised to know just how many everyday products are made from people. You see, there are simply more people on the earth than there is room to bury them. I know that cremation is all the rage, but some people just don't want to see their loved ones turned into kitty litter. I mean, lets face it, cremation is such a downer, and not only that, it's not good business and it's bad for the economy. Also, funeral homes want to sell plots and caskets, not urns. So, the alternative is recycling. It's efficient, easy, cost effective, good for the economy, and just plain fun for the whole family. Hope that helps! 😎

This question is brought to you by the letter F.
Wow, somebody sure has a lot of questions. Good thing there's your friendly neighborhood Alchemy to provide the answers...answers that will not only stand the test of time, but the pop quiz of time as well. Anywho...
Well tickletodea...wait a minute? You tickle people to death? Wow. I mean, most people usually let their lee come up for air every once in a while, but not you Deathy. No sir! By God, if you're going to tickle somebody, it damn well better be to death. Ohh...now I understand your nick Deathy...it lacks panache, but is functional...just like furniture from Ikea....stupid Ikea furniture....all high and mighty with it's "we don't need style, we're MODERN designs". Yeah, well you know what else doesn't need style? This hammer I have here. TAKE THAT IKEA FURNITURE!
....oh, sorry there Deathmetal, got distracted by the furniture. Hmmm...well, they can be a little ticklish from time to time I suppose, but nothing spectacular. Hmmm...no, I don't like having my toes sucked. Dated a girl that tried that once...did nothing for me. So, in summary:
1. a little sometimes
2. NO
Hope that helps you out Dr. Death.

And she's buying a stairway...to questions
Wow! A question from Japan! Konichiwa Kimiko! ..er....donde...escucha..el..la..Japano....u?
Nice to know that our friendly neighbors from the East are still paying attention. I would have thought they would have gotten sick of us long before now. You know..with us making cheap, horrible versions of their horror movies all the time starring grumpy little kids...and wells...and for some reason a horse or 2 is thrown in there. I mean, this is American...you gotta have a horse or 2 thrown in. Anyway Kimikochan, lets get to your quesitons:
Ah, the woodchuck...America's very favorite animal (besides the horse). Hmm...you see, that's a question that has plagued humans from the beginning of time. Seriously, that question caused some philosophers to go insane....or...more..insane..than they were already... Well, aren't you glad you aren't asking THEM these quesitons...they wouldn't be able to give you any right answers anyway. I mean...Aristotle, Socrates, Plato....morons. Actually, the answer is quite simple, not very much at all. Just look at that thing..that little woodchuck there...chucking that wood all woodchuck like... Look how little he is and what a big pile of wood he's chucking! Well, compared to him, that's a lot..that big stack of wood there. But compared to the size of the earth..not very much. Great Wall of China...a lot. Mount Everest...a lot. Pacific Ocean...a lot. Matt Daimon's head...a lot. Woodchuck pile...not very much at all.
Next...(wow, you people are your double question answers. Since this is coming all the way from Japan, I'll ignore that and move on)...How long is a piece of string? Once again, a very simple answer...always the wrong length. You know how sometimes when you get new shoes with the shiny new laces..and when they're all laced up and awesome looking, the laces are still dragging a mile behind you? Yeah, that's a case of laces (or strings) being too long...the wrong length. Or, say you're going to tie a little leash around the body of...say...a horse fly (lets keep the horse theme going here). You will either make it too long or too short. Either the fly is buzzing in the face of the person across the street, or it's buzzing in your face. Once again, always the wrong length.
So, that about covers it Kimikochan. Oh, and next time you see him, say hi to Godzilla for me..cause there's a guy who can chuck some wood!

Thank you for taking the time to clear up these, what I find to be very prominent issues. I only wish there was somebody as intellectually stable, capable of seeing the light, as you here in Tokyogloch, Wales.
On a more serious note (Uh oh this sounds scary already) What would you recommend to a budding young guitarist such as myself as a good way to increase my picking speed, that being the speed of my picking, or how fast I pick.
Thank you!
p.s. Godzilla sends his love!
