Questions Students Ask???

These are true questions that former students of mine have asked me over my 12 year teaching career...Feel free to laugh or cry.
1) Since I taught History or Social Studies I got this question a lot...just fill in the blank with any famous person. "Is ______________ still alive today?" (ex: George Washington, Abraham Lincoln etc...)
2) "If you go into space can you see the different colors of the countries?" -- this while looking at a globe.
3) "If I look really close at the map, can I see people moving?" -- Cheerleader asked this one, when I told her "Yes", she looked even closer.
4) "Did we win World War II?" -- No, Hitler is alive and well and we speak German!
5) "How did babies breath inside the mother's stomach before there were umbilical cords?" -- My response, "We used Scuba Gear." Her reply, "How did we get that in there?" -- I told her to go talk to her mother.
6) "Did America win the American Revolution?" -- God Save the Queen.
7) "If Hawaii is in Mexico, how come it took my family 14 hours to fly there." -- This was after doing a study of maps, and the inset map of Hawaii was shown near Mexico. -- My response, "The airlines just flew you in circles for a while so they can charge you more money for fuel and food."
8) Similar to #7, "If Alaska is under the United States like Mexico, why is Mexico hot and Alaska cold?" -- My response, "Since America has more money that Mexico, we can buy more air conditioners to keep it colder."
9. "Why can't the government just do a fund raiser, like car washes or sell candy, to raise money, rather than charge taxes?" -- actually not a bad question, the way the government spends money.
10. "Mr. E, why did you give me a zero on this paper, when I didn't even turn do the work and turn it in?" -- Hm mm, let's see, zero work = zero grade, make sense.
Teachers have a hard job...Go out and thank one for their efforts and pray for their sanity.
