Actaully, it is a term used in boxing. If you are down and they are counting (to 8) and the bell rings they stop counting and you can fight the next round if you can "answer" the bell (start boxing again) for the next round.

Now, as part of the negotiations for the 2 fighters the rules are determined before the fight, in the contact, or by the state inwhich you are fighting.

If we ship stuff by a boat its called cargo but if its by a car its shipment?

If 7-11 is open 7 days a week 24 hours a day 365 days a year why do the put locks on the doors?

If nothing sticks to teflon how does it stick to the pan?

Why do we park on drive ways and drive on park ways?

One thing I've always wondered, and I hope it doesnt offend anybody here, is how does a blind man know when he's done wiping after taking a crap?
