Always old, sometimes new. Never sad, sometimes blue. Never empty, sometimes full. Never pushes, always pulls.
What am I?
The moon. The moon has been around for quite some time, but there’s a “new” moon every month or so. A Blue moon is a rare event. The moon is a body of rock, so it’s never empty, but we do see what we call a full moon some nights. And the moon’s gravity “pulls” on the ocean to create low and high tides, but it doesn’t push anyone around because it’s a friendly fellah.

It’s not a bird, though feathered, and it has a mobile nest. It’s quick in flight and, having flown, it always stops to rest.
An arrow. It has feathers and its nest (a quiver) is usually carried an archer’s back. The arrow flies when released, but will always land somewhere to rest.

If you could chose to increase the average fuel economy of a car, which of these would save the most fuel?
1. 10mpg -> 12mpg 2. 12mpg -> 15mpg 3. 15mpg -> 20mpg 4. 20mpg -> 30mpg 5. 30mpg -> 60mpg
It turns out they all save the same amount of fuel.
If you travel 100 miles:
100 / 10 = 10 gallons used 100 / 12 = 8 1/3 gallons used
10 – 8 1/3 = 1 2/3 gallons saved
100 / 30 = 3 1/3 gallons used 100 / 60 = 1 2/3 gallons used
3 1/3 – 1 2/3 = 1 2/3 gallons saved
