Answer a Question with a Question...

[Kaila]

You mean rather than go on that voyage, ourselves?

 

[Tish]

What would be the point of that?

 

[Murrmurr]

Who's willing to admit they got a little off-topic there (, Patch... )?

 

[Patch]

What fun is there staying focused and "on topic" when my feeble old mind can't remember what the topic is/was???

 

[Murrmurr]

You saying you don't want to read through 188 pages to find it?

 

[Patch]

Why would I read through 188 pages looking for an answer when, in those 188 pages, there is nothing but more questions?

 

[Kaila]

But wouldn't the questions possibly imply the answers?

 

[Tish]

It could, but would it?

 

[Patch]

If you are suggesting we trust a questions that implies a fact, should we trust a question that might imply the questions I post as answers are nonsensical examples of worthless word salad???

Who you calling nonsensical?

 

[Patch]

Wasn't I pretty careful to use "I" so as to not offend other posters... who might not want to see in print what the voices in my head could be saying???

 

[Murrmurr]

True, so shall we just move on with more nonsense?

 

[Mandee]

OK who's been talking nonsense ?

 

[Patch]

Would the person or persons suggesting someone is talking nonsense actually be the nonsensical talker??

 

[Kaila]

Is there just one, or, are there actually many, and if so, then how many are there?

 

[Mandee]

@Kaila - Which one of those questions do you want me to answer ?

 

[Patch]

Have we changed the rules of the Game to answer a question with two questions... answer those with three questions... answer those with four questions... answer those with ...........??????

 

[Tish]

What makes you think that?

 

[Patch]

And now, am I accused of actually thinking before posting????

 

[Mandee]

'Accused of' - does that mean you actually don't think before posting ?

 

[Kaila]

Is there any rule against changing the rules of this game?

 

[Patch]

'Accused of' - does that mean you actually don't think before posting ?

Would you believe that in 55 years of marriage, my beautiful bride might have suggested quite a few times I am prone to do things without thinking??

 

[Kaila]

When is it considered too late, to begin doing something?

 

[Patch]

Isn't "late" a very subjective word, differing as to what quantifies it depending on who you might ask?

 

[Kaila]

Well then, is it more relevant to ask if one might begin at the middle,
rather than all the way back at the beginning?
