How to get a splinter out
Ouch. Get some (clean) tweezers and try to tweezer the splinter out first. If that doesn't work, try squeezing either side of the splinter with your fingernails. If that doesn't work, have a hot bath with lots of steam and wait, the splinter will work itself out.

What would happen if you preformed every bodily function at once?
I heard that if you cough, sneeze and fart all at the same time, you die. I don't know why this is.
So, every time you cough, sneeze or fart you are 2 steps away from death.

Answer to:
Are we made from the dust of the stars?
I think it means carbon, the element. Everything is made out of carbon and it gets recycled when you die - everything is made from reused carbon.
Weirdly, this would also mean that some of us are made from atoms of people we'd rather not be made out of, like Hitler...

What actually happens if you put Mentos in Diet Coke? Does it actually foam/explode like in the videos?
YES! It's great! Get a two litre bottle of coke, and a packet of mentos still in the foil (loosely) then drop the whole tube in at once and screw the lid on really fast - you have to do it in one swift movement or it will start exploding before you can put the lid on. Then chuck the bottle on the ground end downwards and it just takes off like a rocket.
Or, keep some mentos handy and...

Answer to:
Dreams or real life?
Dreams are good. You can be anyone you want and do anything you like, also you can escape from everyday life. But if you live in dreams all the time you cut yourself off from real life, and since you can't always live your dreams sometimes you just have to come back down to earth.

How do I design a book cover?
Think about the book and what its message is, think about what you want people to think when they pick it up, and how you are going to grab their attention etc. If you mean how can you get to be asked to design a real book cover, maybe do a graphic design course, or get involved with your local art college.

Answer to:
I heard that an egg that has been refrigerated and then removed from the refrigerator will only last a couple of hours at room temp. And an egg that has never been refrigerated will last for several weeks. Is this true?
Yes its true... not sure about a couple of hours but they do last longer when they've never been refrigerated. I have hens and i keep their eggs in a wire basket container in the kitchen, they do last for ages or at least til anyone wants to eat them.

Why do Coca-Cola make coke black instead of leaving it green?
Because they think it's more appetising to drink something that is a more 'natural' colour, rather than a green drink which reminds people of pond water and snot and all sorts of gross things... its just to do with what looks nicer.

Answer to:
I have my tubes tied but i keep dreaming that i am pregnant. in my dream i am very happy about it what does this mean?
In your dreams you can be whatever you want to be and it has no consequences. Perhaps in your dream you were just allowing yourself to imagine being pregnant and happy because you know this is a feeling you can't have in real life?

Answer to:
In my dream I couldn't move or wake up. I was screaming for help but no one heard me. What does that mean?
Hmm. Maybe:
* You feel like you need help and someone to notice you but it seems as if people are ignoring you
* You feel trapped by something that is holding you back
* Sometimes, if you sleep all wrapped up in your duvet, you subcnciously feel strangled and trapped and dream that you are being crushed and can't move. It's a sort of example of 'half-dreaming'
Answer to:
I HAD A DREAM MY HUSBAND WAS DYING AND I WAS PREGNANT WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Dreaming that someone is dying is upsetting, but it doesn't mean you have foreseen their death. Usually, it means that you are very worried about them, maybe without realising quite how seriously worried you are.
Being pregnant in a dream is supposed to symbolise:
- new ideas or plans
- having a secret or keeping something from someone.
But as with all dream interpretetations...

Answer to:
What is the best way to get rid of moles?
Buy a beach windmill, they are usually bright and plasticky coloured and you get them in beach shops and toy shops. Sticking one or two in molehills as they appear, or just sticking them in the ground near the molehills, drives the moles away because they don't like the vibrations caused by the spinning windmills.
