There Is No Such Thing as a Stupid Question or Is There?

I hear that the only stupid questions is one that isn't asked but a conversation I was a part of recently might challenge that assumption. The topic for discussion was kosher establishments in New York, a friend of mine was talking about the variety of kosher places in Flatbush and was waxing poetic on how wonderful it is that there's a kosher Dunkin Donuts. Someone asks "What's it called?" My friend thinks it's a joke and responds "Krispy Kreme"..this person asks again "What's the name of the place?"

It got me thinking about other potentially stupid questions, such as

1. When did the war of 1812 happen?

2. How long was the 100-year war?

3. Who is buried in Grant's Tomb?

4. What color is the White House?

5. Where is the 47th St. Photo Shop?
