First off, to clear up any possible confusion, the fox most definitely does not say “Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding,” “Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow,” or “A-hee-ahee ha-hee.” Foxes are animals. They do not talk. They do, however, make a variety of sounds, including high pitched barks, a type of scream/howl, and something called “gekkering.” See this site for a whole article about fox noises.
Next, if you've ever heard “Blowin’ In The Wind,” you might know that the song is absolutely filled with questions. However, to leave time to address several other songs, I’m only going to discuss the first question: “How many roads must a man walk down/Before you call him a man?” So, I thought about this, and decided that this man should probably be an expert walker. Studies have determined that it takes about 10,000 hours for a person to be an expert at something. If the average person walks 3.1 miles an hour, this man would need to walk 31,000 miles. Taking a few roads (non-interstate highways) in Ithaca as examples, road length varies from tenths of a mile to over ten miles. If a road is taken, on average, to be around 5 miles long, a man needs to walk down 6,200 roads before he can be called a man. If, however, this man wishes to walk down I-90, he only needs to walk down 9.994 roads (I-90 is 3101.77 miles long.)
Here’s one that’s right in the title: “Should I Stay or Should I Go?” Since I have no idea where you’re staying or going, I do not feel qualified to answer this question.
From the pep band folder: “What is Hip?” Well, the hip is a joint that connects the femur to the pelvis. It is a ball and socket joint, which allows for a large range of motion.
And the last one, also from the pep band folder, has been mentioned before on this blog: “Are You Gonna Be My Girl?” If you ask like that, the answer’s no.
