Question #4. Why is water wet?

Why is water wet? A question posed to me by my son quite some time ago. The only answer I could offer at the time that wouldn't completely bemuse him was that water is a fluid and if the water was dry it wouldn't be very good water. It was a good enough answer at the time.

Question #8

What is Bioshock about? That's the next question. I thought that this question might be a bit tricky. How could I possibly explain Bioshock and avoid spoilers whilst doing so? I thought. Well, as it turns out it's actually quite easy since Bioshock is not about it's setting in a city at the bottom of the sea, it's not necessarily about the characters you meet during the adventure there. It's not about the action and gameplay either. All of those things are merely the tools for telling the story. So what is it about then?

This Is The End. Russell Brand - Jeremy Paxman.

Russell Brand appeared on Newsnight with 

Jeremy Paxman to discuss some politics recently.

Russell had guest edited the New Statesman and his political views seem to have cast doubt

upon his credentials to undertake such a task. 

Jeremy fires some taxing questions his way and grills Russell in the same manner he would a fully fledged member of parliament. 

Russell however, responds more eloquently, intelligently and realistically than any politician would under similar questioning. 

Question #10

I really must get down to completing this project. This is possibly the most eagerly awaited blog post ever. More than 5 years in the making. A much discussed and debated topic that has been somewhat divisive within the household from time to time.
The question is simple enough, so what is the problem? Why does it take so long to answer it? Well, if the answer to the question is so simple and easy perhaps the consequences of the answer are equally simple and easy and that's just not the case is it.
So, what is the answer? And what is the question?
Find out after the jump.
