Age-Old Questions

While we were driving down the road yesterday, there was a man, we'll say he was "exercising" along the side of the road. Mike looked at me and said, "That begs the age-old question - Is he running or walking?" Now, though, that was a good point to make about this person, I'm not sure that is an age-old question. I thought age-old questions were often things that are a little more philosophical such as: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? But what do I know?
