nope. Hint, Laura.The sentence is structurally correct, it's just one of three words that cannot be expressed. Think of one and one..and you may have some fun. Very Happy

anf, I thought that you were being contentious. My apologies. Actually, there is just no way to do it. One may say, It is too difficult to put two cats in a sack and not get scratched, but that is not the heart of the riddle. The key is the "three". Laughing
