It always seems like when I have to babysit then Rabbi Yisroel Reisman's shiur is the most interesting.
From the bits and pieces I heard third-hand:
Why was it that Bilaam was gung-ho on cursing Bnei Yisroel, but then when he arrives all he can emit is a bracha?

Because hearing and seeing are two different things. Once he saw, all he could do was bless.
Why did the wife of Lot have to turn into salt after seeing the destruction of S'dom?

I don't know that they are more emotional inside, they are wired differently i believe. And they dont need to talk about it as much as girls do
