Three Unanswered Questions

 
What comes first, the chicken or the egg? Sure, scientists have come up with theories and people have their own opinions. But how will we ever know what really came first? It's a very debatable topic and an unanswered question that hopefully we will one day have the answer to. Even though this question has been along a very long time, I believe we will one day have the answer. I'm sure some scientist will figure this out.

What's in the box? We see this box in this class every day. At least once every day, one person asks Mr. Weber 'What's in the box' or 'When are we going to find out what's in the box?'. Can't we just take some scissors and open it up? By doing this, we could find out what is in the box. 

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? We've seen the commercials with the owls and he obviously doesn't know. I don't think we will ever know the answer to this question because it depends on many different factors and all people are different. The amount of saliva and the size of your mouth and tongue all vary the number. I believe that if a big percent of the world were to try this experiment, we could make an average and find how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.

  1. These are some very questionable questions. You aren't alone when it comes to wondering about these questions.
    I think you explained it nicely also.
