Can you answer this?

[70707Bride]

Have you ever heard questions that might not have an answer, don't make sense, or make you think? Just thought this might be fun.

So here's a question that I just recently found:

If you're not supposed to drink and drive, then why do bars have parking lots?

[Bradsgirl]

SO you can leave your car and take a cab home or so the unfortunate DD can wait all night for the drunk people to have fun all night.

How about this one, colors can't really be described, right so, what if I see "yellow" and it looks a certain way to me, but "yellow" to me is blue to you. So really noone sees the same color because you can't really describe it. Does that make sense?

OR

If someone has been blind their whole life can they see things in their dreams?

I come up with some andom things to think about...

Lol. I think men design these things! LOL! But the only thing I could think of, is sometimes those places like Wal-Mart are closed for certain times during the holidays.

If someone has been blind their whole life can they see things in their dreams?

.

I haven't read the rest of this thread but that intrigued me so I had to look it up.

Yes, blind people do have dreams. However, those blind since birth or very early childhood have no visual imagery in their dreams. Instead, they experience a very high percentage of taste, smell, and touch sensations in their dreams.

The breakdown is as follows:

There are no visual images in the dreams of those born without any ability to experience visual imagery in waking life.

Individuals who become blind before the age of five seldom experience visual imagery in their dreams.

Those who become sightless between the ages of five and seven may or may not retain some visual imagery.

Most people who lost their vision[/URL] after age seven continue to experience at least some visual imagery, although its frequency and clarity often fade with time.

Yep, I actually asked a friend, who is like a genius, and he was going into detail as to how they can see in their dreams.

If a printer is called a printer, a scanner called a scanner, and a copier is called a copier, why isn't a fax machine called a faxer?

Hehe I just thought of this randomly.
