why ask why (or how.what and when)
Isn't it strange that a radiologist has nothing to do with radios?
Isn't it strange that a physician has nothing to do with physics?
Why are they called apartments, when they're all stuck together?
Can fat people go skinny-dipping?
If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent?
When it rains, why don't sheep shrink?
If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
How come price and worth mean the same thing, but priceless and worthless are opposites
If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?
If you tied buttered toast to the back of a cat and dropped it from a height, what would happen?
Why is it necessary to nail down the lid of a coffin?

More Deep Dumb Thoughts.
- How is it possible to have a civil war? Surely war is uncivil ?
- If one synchronised swimmer drowns, do the rest drown too?
- If you ate pasta and antipasta, would you still be hungry?
- If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?
- Why is the alphabet in that order? Is it because of that song?
- If the "black box" flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn't the whole damn airplane made out of that stuff?
- Why is there an expiration date on sour cream?
- The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.
- I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
- If a mute swears, does his mother wash his hands with soap?
- Whose cruel idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have a "S" in it?
- Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?
- Can fat people go skinny-dipping?
- Can you be a closet claustrophobic?
- Is it possible to be totally partial?
- If a book about failures doesn't sell, is it a success?
- If the funeral procession is at night, do folks drive with their lights off?
- When companies ship styrofoam, what do they pack it in?
- If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent?
- Should vegetarians eat animal crackers?
- What do you do when you see an endangered animal that eats only endangered plants?
- Why is bra singular and panties plural?
- If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?
- Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow? Only to be troubled and insecure?
- Isn't it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do "practice"?
- When sign makers go on strike, is anything written on their signs?
- Why do they report power outages on TV?
- Insanity is my only means of relaxation.
- One of life's mysteries is how a two pound box of candy can make a person gain five pounds.
- The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body & your fat are really good friends.
- Age doesn't always bring wisdom. Sometimes age comes alone.
- Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake.
- The saying "You can't have your cake and eat it", is dumb. I had my cake, and then ate it, so I have done both.

Good grief!!! I can actually answer that one... We had some baby pigeons roosting at work a couple of years ago. When they leave the nest they are about 3 weeks old and already full adult size. The only way to visibly tell that they are young is that some of their feathers appeared to be a bit fluffier for a couple of weeks.. As they don't leave the nest until they are adult size that explains why we don't see baby pigeons....

Re: why ask why (or how.what and when)
I saw some baby pigeons in their nest in York. I did try to photograph them but it was through a very dirty leaded window in the Richard III museum and they didn't come out very well.
(apologies for thread wandering)

In winter, why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we try to keep it cool?
