Answers are questioned

I've started asking lots and lots of questions. They pop into my head more frequently and I am less embarassed to ask them.
They betray ignorance, of course.
Questions originate out of places where knowledge is lacking, and everyone can quickly identify where those places are. That doesn't bother me. I find that as I ask my questions people supposedly "in the know" stop what they're doing and listen to the answer. Sometimes, they contradict the answer, or add an interesting gloss. I've never met anyone who was squemish about answering one of my questions. They love my questions. I think that's because I ask the right questions. I've come to this position. An answer could be wrong and yet still something useful might result out of it. But a bad question has little usefulness and is often irritating.
What made you so curious to search out this blog on zaadz?
Depending on the answer I might ask another question.

I was invited to take what I want.
And what did you take?
a gesture of repetition
One gesture of repetition deserves another.
Is that little monkey in your profile being fed regularly? He looks a little hungry.
Thank you, but the monkey's needs are fully and exquisitely met.
You may be wrong, you may be right, but he looks a little on the slim side to me: as if he was on a very, very low carb diet. However he looks wise, even without a beard or beret. And his blasted eyes follow me around the room.
We must accept each monkey as we find them.

Time to eat my mango.
Nice talking with you. Happy Diwali in advance.
Love the sunset pic. Have you ever seen a blue sunset?
