Question

See if you can answer this lot:

1.) If nothing ever sticks to Teflon, how do they get Teflon to stick to the pan?

2.) Why are cigarettes sold at gas stations if smoking is prohibited there?

3.) People always say that something is "... the best thing since sliced bread". What was the best thing before sliced bread?

4.) How many ridges does a dime have around the edge?

5.) OOH! And how many way can you make change for a dollar?

Good Luck!

I'm pretty sure that teflon is chemically bonded to a surface. Once it has cured it does not come off. (well of course you can scratch it off)

The profit margin for cigarettes is very high... MASSIVE!. So of course they are sold everywhere.

The reason for sliced bread... butter! or Thinly sliced deli meats

:P

I'll go out on a limb and say 104, but I feel sorry for the poor guy who has counted them.

Thanks for having a go! Great ideas! Your first 3 answers were great. You put it better than i could. On the dollar one, you were close, there are actually 118 ridges. I know because my friends and i all counted them. Well done. Thanks again!
