Sentana- Right you are. And that would be a fascinating topic for another thread. The relationship of the costs of medical services when correlated with the complexity of the diagnosis. Would you like to take that on?

Not really, Boss, i just always thought it was a hoot . . . we had one doctor once, who treated a university student for an embarrassing condition, and when i brought back the treatment record, and insisted that he write in a diagnosis and treatment (couldn't get reimbursed by the university without it), he wrote:

Pimple on penis
Popped pimple

I cracked up, and knew that bureaucracy would pay without quibble, because all the proper blanks had been filled in.

That little thingy is REEEEEEEEEEL cute Beth - but, I 'm telling you, if they don't fish, their guys have trouble telling the truth about the size of their willies - just like human boys!

This comes about as close to being a dumb cluck thread as any I've ever tripped over. Why, there ain't even a time span delineated in the question! Option six is the only plausible answer, now ain't it?

Better to have asked, "'Twixt cockcrow and sundown, how many crows could a wooden chook crow if a wooden chook could crow like a woodcock?"

Debacle, I find your "wooden chook" a tongue-twister. The meaning got lost in the twist. Wink c.i.

There's also a physics aspect to this. After all, given that bodies in motion tend to remain in motion, if a woodchuck were (wearing the proper breathing equipment of course. Settle down, PETA) to chuck wood directly into a vacuum, wouldn't the wood travel - assuming no obstructions - forever?

And then we are getting into questions of God and physics and eternity and Little Stevie Hawking and probably this has something to do with the wood used in pianos and I think there might be a Nobel Prize in there somewhere, underneath all that chucked wood, if we could only get to it, but the woodchucks are hogging all the breathing equipment.

jespah, It would seem that we'd have a sky full of wood constantly in motion. Are you sure one of them didn't see your head as a target? Wink c.i.

Not to worry, c.i. - I'm basically twisted myself. Smile

It does seem that some Aussie rabbits prefer chooks, although such congenitality may not extend to wooden ones.

Blinks groggily - having just arisen - sky full of wood? chooks? chucks in breathing apparatus? co-efficients of friction? Jespah being just as silly as me and Debacle put together?

Must be christmas....

ehBeth, I don't think that's a marmoset.

As for all the variables and mathematical permutations to be taken into account for woodchucking, I say phooey. I will not be a party to forced labor for undomesticated animals.

Did it ever occur to you, dlowan, that the woodchuck doesn't wanna chuck wood? That he or she has better things to do than create a pile of wood. I imagine that a considerable amount of time is spent trying not to become somebody's coat.

Then there's the whole February 2 shadow business. A very demanding job.

Woodchucks of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but your bonds!

But they MUST wanna chuck wood - why would they be woodchucks if they didn't?

You don't find polar bears wandering about in the tropics, or grizzly bears being of sweet disposition - these names MEAN something, I tell you!

JD - the photo does not include the answer! It is occluded!
