Re: Word Play 13
Oh yeah, Keanu Reeves said that.
Earth was sold to aliens by the government? Why?

Re: Word Play 13
Why do people sell things?
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

To get money. But what if the aliens didn't have Earth currency?
Then it could be bribery. For... protection? Or to not be destroyed...
That's all I got.

I've lost complete knowledge of why anyone does anything.
I'm just using my little knowledge of psychology to estimate.

Like, why have the government sold Earth to the aliens?

I'll Google it, & find out.
GRR! Thought Yahoo Answers had something there but the question was deleted!
It would seem Google doesn't know either.

I did? Oh yeah. I was really just using that to make a point.
So... how much did the government make? & if they sold the Earth then why do they still need taxes?
