oh i know your excited.
Question one.
What is the height of the world's biggest tree? How long did it take to grow?
The tree called "General Sherman" is not only the biggest giant sequoia, but it is also the biggest tree in the world. He is 83.8 m (274.9 feet) tall, his girth at breast height is 24,10 m (79 feet) (near the ground it is 31,3 m or 102,6 feet). The width of the crown is 33 m, and the first branch starts only at 40 m or 130 feet! . For a long time it was thought that this tree had reached an age of 2000 to 3000 years. Others even spoke about ages of 6000 to 11000 years. Research has shown that he is probably 'only' about 2000 years old.
Oh & incase you were thinking tallest not biggest, that my friend is a redwood, Hyperion, standing a measly 115.5 meters. They reckon its about 600 years old. (Redwoods - the worlds biggest trees)
& i thought i'd add this in, just for fun.
this is a man measuring the worlds tallest tree.
How you ask?
By climbing it & dropping a tape measure.
Ohhh yeah.

The oldest elephant ever recorded died on the 26th Feb 2003 at the age of 86. Lin Wang lived in captivity in Taipei Zoo Taiwan. The average life expectancy for an elephant is 45 years, in captivity & the wild. (Woodland Park Zoo)
Question four.
How would you define the word 'glycomics'? In your own words what does it really mean? What does the term 'seagull manager' refer to?
The term glycomics is derived from the chemical prefix for sweetness or a sugar, "glyco-", and was formed to follow the naming convention established by genomics (which deals with genes) and proteomics (which deals with proteins). The definition of glycomics has evolved to cover a range of scientific disciplines that are applied to study the structure and function of carbohydrates (sugars) in biological systems. (Griffith University)
I think it means blah blah blah. Its a weight loss program, studying sugars in the body, to eliminate them!
A seagull manager pretty much explains its self, its a manager who is brought in to deal with a project, makes a lot of fuss, achieves nothing, and then leaves. Just like a sea gull flapping around annoying you at your beach lunch & getting nothing in the end. (BNET)
Question five.

Eastern Promises (2007) and Blondie was in Videodrome (IMDB)
Question six.
When was the original 'Hackers' released?
1995, (IMDB)
Question seven.
Why do phone numbers in Hollywood films start with '555'?
Why? Because people are stupid enough to call up the numbers from the movies for a good old chat with the stars. Ah no. the '555' number was assigned to directory assistance (dial 555 and any four additional numbers for the area and you will get information) so the movies & tv figure its safe enough to ward off the crazys. (Guardian)
Question eight.
What is the cheapest form of travel from the GC to Cairns?
Walking. & don't eat. & sleep on the side of the road. Feel free to pee there too but don't get caught, the fine will ruin your cheap holiday. Yep, thats it.
