This is dependent on whether or not you are being cremated. If you are, then yes, they take them off. The same goes for pacemakers and metal screws in bones and such. The metal can damage the grinders and pacemakers will actually explode due to the heat inside the retort.

Okay, here's the ones I know-
Shampoo is not always clear. There are 800 #$#)*^@# kinds of shampoo in all colors of the rainbow. I think guy's shampoo is clear because guys really don't care what their shampoo looks like.
French fries are a vegetable, just not a healthy one.
Babies just aren't good at swallowing their spit. That, or they just don't care.
Vanilla ice cream is really a very very light brown (sort of a cream), and that's only when it's made with real vanilla. I'm sure that artifical vanilla flavor is clear and doesn't color the ice cream.
You can tan your palms. It's just that they're not usually in the sun too much.
Yes, because they'd probably have finals on the day you're making up.
Dogs have scent glands near the base of their tail that convey information to other dogs. Pheremones and all.
I think the compass would spin aimlessly.
Sometimes the English language has idioms, and we should all just get used to them.

Gravity is everywhere, so even if in deep space, provided the compass is not continually jostled, it would eventually point toward the gravitational field with the highest proximity : gravitational strength ratio, whatever that happens to be.
Hmm, I thought the compass worked via magnetic fields, not gravitational fields. A compass actually points to 'magnetic north', and not always truly the physical north pole.
So in outer space a compass would align along the strongest magnetic field and point towards the equivalent of the 'north' end of the dipolar field.
But heck, this isn't funny any longer, now is it?

That's OK.....
As a penalty, answer this question where gravity will have a bearing:
You have taken your hunting rifle into outer space with you and decide to have target practice for the first time. You set a target out at 200 yards from your ship, because you had it exactly zeroed in to hit the X-ring at that distance at home. How should you adjust your sites for shooting in space with no gravity?

Well, assuming that there was a part of space which is not affected by gravity, leaving the scope as is would cause the bullet to impact higher than where you are targeting, so the scope would have to adjusted up (I don't know the proper terminology).

Erk... I shouldn't post after work anymore... 'gravitational field'. Duh.
I second Uffern's answer to the bonus question, though. The bullet would travel in a straight line in space. Also, you wouldn't have to wear ear protection, 'cause there's no sound waves in a vacuum.
