…but to keep you coming back to my blog so I still get loads of views,
and so I can get to 300 followers before La Popinjay does,
and so you don’t fuck off to some other blogger who talks to you more,
and so I can feel like I’m not ignoring you all (y’all) while I get on with ANOTHER THING
here’s a question —
What’s white and flies through the air faster than the speed of light?
RULES
There are two correct answers, either one of which I’ll accept.
If more than one of you get a correct answer I’ll do eeny-meeny-miney-mo to decide.
Or I might do ip-dip-dog-shit instead, it depends how I feel.
The winner will be my SUPREME PET FOR THE DAY tomorrow.
Here’s a picture to keep you entertained. I know everyone likes pictures and I know if I could put pictures in all my posts my views and my followers would be in the ZABILLIONS by now, but I can’t do it properly, it always goes wrong, I’ll NEVER be good with pictures and one day you’ll all go away to find blogs with pictures and this one of the SHOE-CAR has taken me over an hour of the time I was going to spend on ANOTHER THING so I hope you like it.
This is a shoe but it's also a CAR!! Fucking amazing what they can do nowadays.
I want this SHOE-CAR. I want it.

I’m working on the riddle, but I love the shoe car — If you find out where to get one, please pass along the info. (In secret, if you’d like, or everyone will own a car that’s a shoe, and the car won’t be rare then!)
Love,

It is a Cumberland sausage wrapped in butcher paper. Because clearly Cumberland sausages are capable of extraordinary things.
OK, really, I don’t know, because according to conventional physics, nothing can go faster than the speed of light. So a Cumberland sausage seemed just as plausable as anything else. And the butcher paper would make it appear white.
Cheers,
DeeDee

Thank you for your thoughtful answer. It’s a good one but I can’t tell you whether it’s a CORRECT one or not until whenever I decide to give the answers.

/ April 11, 2012Dear Dotty,
After much discussion with Tookes over at http://whatzombiesfear.com/… I thought it be fair to share the thought process of two different time zones (I’m up late, he is up with fresh coffee)…
[8:40:16 PM] John: What’s white and flies through the air faster than the speed of light?
[8:40:20 PM] John: Serious question
[8:40:24 PM] John: I don’t know the answer of
[8:40:29 PM] John: well
[8:40:33 PM] John: riddle…
[8:41:18 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: brb
[8:41:43 PM] John: kk
[8:53:38 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: Pennsylvania ZPI hands John a coffee
[8:53:53 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: riddle… hrmm.
[8:54:18 PM] John: Neutrinos are.. but don’t know if it’s white… or if they are looking for a real answer or a riddles answer
[8:54:55 PM] John: Overall meaning lightning
[8:55:37 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: lightning isn’t faster than light.
[8:56:43 PM] John: but the initial spark has to be….
[8:57:47 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: lighting travels at 224,000 mph
[8:57:54 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: according to the google
[8:58:07 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: light speed is 670,000,000 mph
[8:59:22 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: what is the question from? I could find no riddle along those lines.
[9:00:03 PM] John: lol
[9:00:13 PM] John: https://dottyheadbanger.wordpress.com/2012/04/11/this-post-is-not-a-post-its-a-competition-because-i-have-another-thing-to-write-today/
[9:02:55 PM] John: she’s a self appointed mental online (and loving it), quite a darl to talk to otherwise
[9:07:33 PM] John: warpdrive and hyperspace?
[9:07:59 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: neither are real though :
[9:08:28 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: and warp drive doesn’t move faster than light, it ‘warps’ time-space.
[9:09:28 PM] John: okay so our mind is faster than light… does electricity travel faster?
[9:10:28 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: Nothing can move faster than light.
[9:10:41 PM] John: [8:54 PM] John:
<<< Neutrinos
[9:11:04 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: A tachyon is a hypothetical particle that always moves faster than light, but tachyons have never been measured, observed, or calculated, only postulated
[9:11:32 PM] John: damn electricity doesn't travel
[9:11:37 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: neutrinos are not ftl, the scientist who said he observed it quit CERN
[9:11:57 PM] John: it was confirmed by another group of scientists….
[9:12:08 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: My answer would be "A piece of paper at the event horizon of a black hole"
[9:12:36 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: or something white at the event horizon
[9:12:40 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: it's right enough.
[9:12:56 PM] John: A white object at the event horizon huh?
[9:13:20 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: You can make it something funny
[9:13:43 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: "an albino sloth at the event horizon of a black hole"
[9:13:52 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: or.. you could go completely hypothetical..
[9:14:14 PM | Edited 9:15:11 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: "Jean Luc Picard's underwear at warp 9.9"
[9:15:39 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: btw: RE Neutrinos
[9:15:40 PM] Pennsylvania ZPI: http://news.sciencemag.org/scienceinsider/2012/02/breaking-news-error-undoes-faster.html
[9:16:32 PM] John: Fuckers, I need to read the news more often than every 3 months

/ April 12, 2012Dear Dotty,
Well, he had it right with neutrino too but right now the only thing I can think of that’s white was my previous comment that just disappeared from WP and sped of faster than light to wherever the comment graveyard is. Stupid Word press…..take my words that take forever to formulate and just steal them and *poof* they’re gone.
I am unable to recreate my previous comment because my brain does not remember beyond the moment it formulates a word. Gets me into a lot of trouble if I don’t copy and paste.
I will say neutrino because I love you and don’t want you to think I would kick you in the shins.

First of all, I’m disapointed that you are so eager to collect followers as though we were frozen Cumberland sausages or something. Second, I have no idea why a raven is like a writing desk. And altough the shoe car is wonderful, wouldn’t you rather drive around in a hot dog? http://www.reedberry.com/wmob001.jpg
