Answer a Question with a Question...

[Rosemarie]

I was under the impression that it was better to time your flight to arrive at bed-time. Is that not the best advice?

 

[Murrmurr]

If it were, wouldn't you be late for dinner?

 

[Patch]

Would you be 'late for dinner' or would you be late for breakfast if you traveled far enough east you landed in tomorrow?

 

[hollydolly]

What would you prefer to be late for ?...breakfast or dinner

 

[Kaila]

Is it alright that I'd prefer to be late for lunch?

 

[StarSong]

Do you eat meals at specific times or when the mood strikes?

 

[Patch]

Being somewhat OCD, don't you think I eat by a pretty regimented schedule?

 

[Rosemarie]

Don't you find yourself following a routine whether or not you mean to?

 

[Kaila]

Would it be considered my new routine, if I am late for lunch, repeatedly?
Therefore I would no longer be considered late?

 

[Patch]

Are you sure you are always late for lunch or just very early for supper?

 

[Kaila]

Will there always be bedtime snacks available, then?

 

[Tish]

What bedtime snacks are you referring to?

 

[Murrmurr]

What does it matter what kind? Don't you like just about any snack?

 

[Patch]

Did you know our dog has to have a bedtime snack of ice cream or she thinks we don't like her anymore?

 

[Murrmurr]

Considering the cost of ice cream, are you sure you still like her?

 

[Rosemarie]

How did that habit start?

 

[hollydolly]

Have you ever touched a Nuns' Habit ?

 

[Patch]

If I had ever touched a Nun's Habit, would that be a bad habit or a good habit... since touching a Nun could be a bad habit but a Nun's habit would, most generally be a good habit... therefore, do you understand why I'm confused about habit touching being good or bad???

 

[hollydolly]

Do you think I can understand gobbledygook ?

 

[Kaila]

Can you?

 

[Rosemarie]

Babies talk goobledygook but their mothers understand them, so isn't it just a case of taking the trouble to make sense of it?

 

[Kaila]

Is it the same, or different with babies and with adults?

 

[hollydolly]

Do you ever talk baby talk as an adult ?

 

[StarSong]

Only to babies or toddlers. Have you ever had a nurse talk baby talk to you?

 

[Patch]

Are you aware I find it difficult to remember 70 some years ago when a nurse might have spoken to me in "baby talk"?
