Rise and Shine --- Questions

Good Morning and welcome back to the Internet!

OK, so we've been running a daily poll on www.delcotimes.com for the last few months. Sometimes, the question gets a lot of answers, sometimes (a lot of times) there aren't many responses.
If the Eagles are somehow involved in the question, people are ready to punch their opinion. If it's about the economy, well, we've all been beat up enough.
Now, coming up with a question every day is not the best part of this job. In fact, there are many times I just completely forget to get it done. After asking those around here for some ideas for questions and getting none (something about being too overworked or some other made up excuse), I'm throwing it out to the Web readers.
What's a good question to ask? What's on your mind you want others to weigh in on? I need a question and three or four (or five) multiple choice answers.
For the sake of accounting, here are some examples of bad questions:
1. Who will win Best Sound Editing at the Oscars?
2. How many hours a day do you spend looking at Internet porn?
3. Is George W. Bush the greatest president ever?
4. What would you shove in your ear?
5. Have you ever heard of instinctual eating?
6. Does it hurt if you hit your thumb with a hammer?
7. How long does it take to tie your shoes?
8. Should men be allowed to wear skirts to work?
9. McDonald's Hamburgers are...
10. When will the Eagles win a Super Bowl?

So, stay away from them, but everything else is fair game. Send your questions and answers to onlinedelco@gmail.com
To help you think, I offer this:

Rise and Shine

GOOD MORNING, DELAWARE COUNTY!

While sitting here thinking about how I'm going to get to work now that gas has reached the $4 mark, I was wondering:

If the movie 'Sex and the City' is for women only, why do they push the 'Sex' part and not the 'City' part?
If the Phillies keep scoring all those runs here at the end of May, does that mean they'll set a team record for being shut out in June?
If the Lakers (who are already there) and Celtics play in an NBA Championship reunion, will it be long before The Human League gets back on the stage?
Is that really a bear wondering around Bucks County, or just a neighbor having a bad hair day?
Why can't an oil company make a mistake and come to my house and fill the tank?
Does anybody really pay attention any more to the Billboard Hot 100?
If an alien spaceship is monitoring Earth right now, are they laughing or crying?
If Harrison Ford, 65, can come back as Indiana Jones, why can't Clint Eastwood make another 'Every Which Way but Loose?'
How many people actually read these posts?
When I win the Powerball, will I continue to work for two weeks or just never return?
Is it to safer to swim off the shore of Atlantic City or Marcus Hook?
If I drive the speed limit and actually stop at stop signs in Delaware County, will I get pulled over for 'eratic driving?'
Which is true: 'Money can't buy you love' or 'Money don't get everything it's true, but what it don't get I can't use.'
If George W. Bush was around in 1776, would the Constitution include a 'lying for the sake of improving political standing' clause?
Why have we become a society that does nothing but complain instead of seeing the beauty around every day?
Is a 'scumbag' just a drug dealer or any kind of criminal?
Why do public schools have to put so much pressure on children starting in kindergarten that they hate school by second grade?
Why can I drive to Delaware to get a big screen TV, but get pulled over for purchasing a bottle of wine?
While Starbucks is taking over the world, why are there so few in Delaware County?
If I promise to give 50 cents to a charity, will you send me a dollar?
Who comes up with those people poll questions?
Can Fox News actually offer an unbiased opinion?
Isn't this one of the funniest video clips or all time:
