Hey!  This is not Six Question Saturday!

1. Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle which holds it?  No air

2. If you stand behind a clock, is it still going clockwise? It is

3. Why do we have four silent letters in the word "Queue"? Why did they stop at four?  I'm guessing there was som confusion in at the point of Que so they ventured on and quickly decided this could end up like pi.

4. Why do sleeping pills come with a warning that reads "Caution: May Cause Drowsiness"?  Because we have a lot of morons among us.

5. Which orange came first - the fruit or the color?  Fruit, and a fine one at that!

I have no glue

2. If you stand behind a clock, is it still going clockwise?

Yep

3. Why do we have four silent letters in the word "Queue"?

Because Quinton Flowers had a trademark on Q and up to 3 silent letters

4. Why do sleeping pills come with a warning that reads "Caution: May Cause Drowsiness"?

Lawyers

5. Which orange came first - the fruit or the color?

The color?

1. Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle which holds it?

Because glue is governed by the same property that states that it must gum up the cap and refuse to come out of the bottle after the first use.  In other words, it is the feline version of the adhesive world

2. If you stand behind a clock, is it still going clockwise?

irrelevant question, since all clocks are digital and do not move anyway

3. Why do we have four silent letters in the word "Queue"?

Agree with @CousinRicky - Quentin Flowers has the trademark on Q and the line version spelling had to adjust

4. Why do sleeping pills come with a warning that reads "Caution: May Cause Drowsiness"?

So that young adults do not confuse them with some sort of aphrodisiac 

5. Which orange came first - the fruit or the color?

Yes
