Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In a web page, is it possible to make a combo box (dropdown box) wider just when you pull down the selection? So the combo box itself would remain the same width and only the pulled down stuff would be wider?
We could use Javascript to do this....
eta: This would only be used for IE.

I don't know if you could do it with a "real" combo box, but you could certainly design a fake combo box with those properties using CSS and Javascript.
And by "you", I mean someone with more knowledge of CSS than I.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Trust my rage
Has anyone ever had a bad/weird eBay experience seeling computer stuff? I've got someone who says they want to buy my Powerbook, and I keep telling him to just go bid, but he keeps saying he wants to Paypal me the money directly.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Don't do it. In fact, report him to eBay abuse. It's likely some sort of scam.

I reported him. We will see what happens now. I checked out his profile - everyone he's ever bought from is no longer registered. Bad sign. Thanks for confirming the gut feeling I had.
