Mar 15, 10 03:59 am — Stupid Questions?

Below are questions that people "actually asked" of Park Rangers around the country, proving once again that there is no known limit to the depths of human stupidity.

Grand Canyon National Park...
Was this man-made?
Do you light it up at night?
I bought tickets for the elevator to the bottom -- where is it?
So where are the faces of the presidents?

Everglades National Park...
Are the alligators real?
Are the baby alligators for sale?
Where are all the rides?
What time does the two o'clock bus leave?

Denali National Park (Alaska)...
What time do you feed the bears?
Can you show me where the yeti lives?
How often do you mow the tundra?
How much does Mount McKinley weigh?

Mesa Verde National Park...
Did people build this, or did Indians?
Why did they build the ruins so close to the road?
What did they worship in the kivas -- their own made-up religion?
Do you know of any undiscovered ruins?
Why did the Indians decide to live in Colorado?

Carlsbad Caverns National Park...
How much of the cave is underground?
So what's in the unexplored part of the cave?
Does it ever rain in here?
How many Ping-Pong balls would it take to fill this up?
So what is this -- just a hole in the ground?

Yosemite National Park...
Where are the cages for the animals?
What time do you turn on Yosemite Falls?
Can I get my picture taken with the carving of President Clinton?

Yellowstone National Park...
Does Old Faithful erupt at night?
How do you turn it on?
When does the guy who turns it on get to sleep?
We had no trouble finding the park entrances, but where are the exits?

The alligator question only sounds stupid if you have never seen one in the wild. They look so fake, it is hard to believe they are real. They look like they were constructed out of rubber and it is rare to see one move or even twitch a muscle.

They look very fake.

They look fake until it matters, that is.

Religion is like a penis. It is fine to have one. It is fine to be proud of it. But please don't whip it out in public and start showing everyone. And please don't shove it down our childrens throat.

Seen plenty and killed a few. They don't look fake to me.

The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

Nope. I sold the hides and kept the tail meat and the skulls. They look cool in my trophy room.

Good! Kill some for me.

What about caymans? They look like scaled down versions, sort of like a table saw versus a chain saw.

I have seen thousands of them in the wild and they always look like fake rubber ones to me. I am talking about ones that don't move. Of course when they start moving around, it kind of breaks the illusion that they are fake.
