Those "Other" Questions

Today's the fourth anniversary of Ask Leo!, and that means it's time to collect up some of the questions that you didn't see me answer. You'll soon see why. We've got quite the bumper crop this year.

As always, every question is a real question I've received via Ask Leo! within the last year, presented exactly as I got it (except that any potentially identifying information will have been removed). Each "answer" is the answer that I'd be oh-so-tempted to give...

[Warning: there may be "bad words" in some of the questions. Y'all been warned.]

Enjoy.

Ah Leo, what fun you have with nutty questions. I've ROFL with so many both this year and back to 2004.
Keep up the good (proper) work and I'll look forward to the 'stoopid' questions for 2008.

Leo... I didn't know that the "Ask Leo" website had a kindergarden section. I have read as much as I could from your http://leo.notenboom.org/2007/08/those_other_que.html website. I wonder if all the questions I have read from your subscribers are children. As always... I look forward to your mail... Happy Birthday "Ask Leo" May many years continue for this site. Thanks...

I'm in tears from laughing. These are marvelous and I think you should have answered some of them, just for fun.
I enjoy your newsletter every week and almost always find something useful in each issue. That's a pretty good record, I'd say...

One more thing: Long live the 'preview' button!

Pax,

Good work Leo...

Wow, I'd not laughed like this for quite a long time ... Thanks Leo, keep up your great work.

Posted by: Vince at August 18, 2007 08:53 AM

Leo,

This is awesome. I think it is hilariously funny how and what people try to ask you. I think they ask you such retarded questions is because they got you confused with www.ask.com or something. They think "ask-leo" means "ask-leo-anything".

Anyway thanks for the laugh and keep up the great work!
