"What are you doing?"
"Hmm? Oh, I'm trying to think of a Dorky Poll question to post to the blog, because I'm going to be away from the computer for a while."
"Why are they always human polls?"
"Um, because the vast majority of my readers are human?"

"Do left and right shoes vacuum free fall identically?" If so, everything else arrives by UPS. If not, bunnies infest the strip park one block over. Supper arrives either way.

Pinky: what are we going to chase today Brain?
Brain: the same thing we chase everyday--POWER!!!

My dog, who insists on hiding in the doghouse until he is absolutely convinced that I'm going to take him with me and not lock him in his crate.
There are one or two things I don't understand about, say, general relativity. It's possible that I'm chasing knowledge, in the "wait for it to come by, then pounce" sense. (There are also a few things I don't understand about quantum mechanics, but at least with the relativity I have a better idea of what the questions are.)
