4. If you define an "inning" as the top and bottom of; the answer would not necessarily be six. Usually, there are six outs, frequently three and occasionally four or five. On very rare occasions there may only be 0, 1 or 2.

3 when the home team doesn't have to play the bottom of an inning since they already won, or if they play and get a run before any outs. 4, or 5 if they make 1 or 2 outs before scoring the winning run. 0,1,or 2 could be rainouts.

yes

2. How many birth days does the average man have?

one

3. Some months have 31 days; how many have 28?

12

4. In baseball, how many outs are there in an inning?

6

5. Can a California man legally marry his widow's sister?

that would be hard since they'd have to drag the casket up the isle, but the laws there are so liberal it MIGHT still be legal

6. Divide 30 by 1/2 and add 10. What is the answer?

70

7. If there are 3 apples and you take away 2, how many do you have?

2

8. A doctor gives you three pills telling you to take one every half hour. How many minutes would the pills last?

60

9. A farmer has 17 sheep standing in a field and all but 9 drop down and die. How many sheep are left standing?

9

10. How many members of each animal did Moses take on the ark?

That's a thorny one because the word "members" makes one wonder if you're talking about their dorks. In that case it would be one. However, one could also dispute the reality of the ark story in which case we could go on debating further, however I'm not going to. Also, the ark had to travel a long way from egypt to get to mount ararat now, didn't it.

11. A clerk in the butcher shop is 5' 10'' tall. What does he weigh?

Probably about 290-350 lbs. However, he usually weighs meat.

12. How many two cent stamps are there in a dozen?

A dozen.

So AM I a brainiac?

Nah. You blew #10. Moses didn't have an ark. Oh, wait, that's the "long trip" reference. OK, you're a brainiac.
