This was brought to mind while reading another thread and I didn't want to hijack it so I decided to start it's own thread.
A couple of months ago my son heard a joke or riddle, I guess. The question is what does 1+1 =? He decided to tell the riddle to my brother and nephew, and they started to come up with all the answers that they could think of that 1+1 equal. I can only rememeber a couple of them off the top of my head. 1, as in two clouds added together make one big cloud. 5 as in one man and one woman get together and have 3 kids making a family of 5. The 'real' answer is window. the 1's are the side pieces, the + is the cross piece and the = is the top and bottom.
Can you come up with any more? Just a little mental fun for a Thursday night.

1 driver who does not ask for directions, and who has a lousy map, + 1 passenger who does not know the city = 1 very "interesting" (and slightly stressful) tour of Vancouver (including the Downtown East Side) late at night.
1 driver who finally admits they are lost + 1 person who knows the city well and can give directions = a VERY relieved passenger heading towards their bed.....finally.

1+1= 11 - which looks like 2 towers.

1 + 1 = 3
1 spare moment + 1 procrastinating busymom = 3 hours on the internet

Exciting :3
1 + 1 = 3 (woman + man = child)
1 + 1 = 10 (binary)
1 + 1 = 1 (white blood cell + bacteria = happy white blood cell)
Just a Self-writing poem,
