bright lot aren't we ....
Answers 1. Johnny. 2. Meat. 3. Mt. Everest. It just wasn’t discovered yet. 4. There is no dirt in a hole. 5. Incorrectly (except when it is spelled incorrecktly). 6. Billie lives in the southern hemisphere. 7. You can’t take a picture with a wooden leg. You need a camera (or iPad or cell phone) to take a picture. 8. You would be in 2nd place. You passed the person in second place, not first. 9. Neither. Egg yolks are yellow. 10. One. If he combines all his haystacks, they all become one big stack. |

Before Mt. Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain in the world?
3. Mt. Everest. It just wasn’t discovered yet. Now how are you dating the discovery of Mt Everest? OK it was surveyed and named by the British but I think you will find the Nepalese had already discovered Sagarmatha and the Tibetans knew about Chomolungma long before the British got anywhere near it. Ho humm I am in a grumpy mood so don't mind me. One of those days in the office! Brendan |

Surely it doesn't matter who discovered it? There must, by definition, be a time before it was discovered by anybody. Darren

I'd have a drink but it's been a while since alcohol has passed my lips, makes me a tadge rusty, no proof that I'm any healthier for not drinking.
