Thanks Skiddy, but haven't you got an old pie or summink.



Right off we go...mineral

Shepherd's pie, suit? (A pie in name only, in my humble opinion)

1) is it bigger than a breadbox?

1) It can fit any size bread box but technically will no longer be the object I am thinking of

Does it have moving parts?

2 It moves but has no moving parts

Do you own one?

1...Can fit any size breadbox but changes its nature when it does

2...Moves but contrary to what I said above has millions of moving parts

3.. Cannot be owned by anybody rich or poor.

Is it a gas?

Would that make it Jumping Jack Flash (is a gas gas gas)

Although it may appear I made a statement categorical
I'd like to make it clear right here my question was rhetorical
There is a precedent in verse (or worse) and it's historical
But! I am not now, nor have I ever been a Major General (Either full size or Model, and at 66 years old I don't feel qualified to identify myself as Modern.)

Why do I so often feel I should apologize for my posts?

Edited because we who are elderly and riddled with arthritis not infrequently mis-hammer our keyboards.
