The deepest part of the ocean is the Marianas Trench. How many times have people been to the bottom of it, what year(s) and how much cumulative time did they spend there?
What are we waiting on?
correct, Grant and his wife are entombed there. Above ground so not buried.
Okay, then who’s buried in Lenin’s tomb?
(Seriously, one of my teachers asked this on a test and was told things like “Stalin is buried in Lenin’s tomb”, “They fly airplanes in Lenin’s tomb,” “They have parades in Lenin’s tomb”, and “There’s a shopping mall in Lenin’s tomb.” I guess the question left a lot of 12 year olds pondering.)

Why is it called a blowjob, when she sucks?
Wrong thread.

What does post 30 say?

Why is it called a triangle?
Why do we swim in swimming pools?

The reason for this is that things only appear to fall “down.” They are actually falling toward the center (source) of gravity. There is no “absolute up;” “up” is a direction that only exists referrent to something else.
Imagine that you are standing near the North Pole, and an associate is standing near the South Pole. (Just far enough off to adjust for the earth’s tilt.) You each drop a bowling ball.
From the perspective of your position relative to your associate’s, his or her bowling ball IS falling “up.”
Why not?
What?
We’re waiting on the earth. What we’re wating for is a different question.
How’d I get to be so damn smart, sexy, and witty?
