• (3 votes) how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
  

  let us dissect this statement.
  the question:
  how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
  and the answer:
  a woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
  
  now if we look at the question being asked, it seems that we are questioning what a woodchuck would do, and we are predicting what is likely. as this is the case, the answer may be fuzzy, but we might arrive at one nonetheless.
  
  in order to know this, we first must know the motives that may push a woodchuck to chuck wood, so let us look at possible causes for such.
  
  first know that a woodchuck should not be misunderstood, the do not wear a hood, and gardeners think them not good. now that you know that, learn the following.
  
  a woodchuck is a Marmota monax, and was given the name most likely because of the habitat that the indians observed it in, whenever english settlers came over to ammerica. it was a translation of an indian word, appareantly compounded in order to make sense.
  
  most people know the woodchuck by a diffrent name though: groundhog.
  
  woodchucks can eat bark, and other grasses, so it is concievable that a woodchuck could chuck wood for bark substinance.
  
  however, woodchucks tend to like to stay in their borrow, in the day. it would not likely wish to take the effort to chuck wood if it could find other food.
  
  because the “Hibernacula (are) preferentially constructed in soils with good drainage in hedgerows, woods, south-facing inclines, rocky areas, and even haystacks.” we can see that it is likely that a woodchuck would live within range of woods, and hence is not limited by this facilitation from its possible chucking.
  
  so now that we know something about the behavior of the woodchuck, we can further analyze the question.
  
  the next important part of the answer is “would chuck all the wood he could”
  if we examine the implications of this, it would be as if saying the woodchuck had no life. i mean, what self respecting wood chuck would sit around all day chucking wood? it would be reasonable for it to chuck some wood, simply because it could.
  but to chuck all the wood would not be good. dont let me be misunderstood, but one must think of what else the woodchuck should do, and not neccessarily what it would do. you need to remember that woodchuchs hibernate. he needs to go and find a misses woodchuck for goodness sakes.
  
  finally, we come to the final part of the answer: “if a woodchuck could chuck wood”
  
  this is implying that a woodchuck currently cant chuck wood. but woodchucks have teeth, and teeth can naw and chuck wood fairly well enough… but it only specifies the answer and as such will be left out of our analysis.
  
  so, based on the reasons provided i suggest this alternative:
  
  a woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck should chuck, but only as much as is good for the woodchucks need of wood.
  
  does anyone find any reason to dispute this?

• (1 vote) How can I get to know Jesus?
  

  its true verum, it takes heart to believe we are alone,
  
  it doesnt make you feel good to think that there is no god, not one that would explain why we are here.
  
  to say that it must have been made up.
  
  to say it was simply the largest collaboration in history, and to turn your back on god, even as a possibility.
  
  its true, it takes heart.
  
  but i guarantee you, that it takes more to see that we cannot be alone, that we are created by a god,
  
  when everyone around you thinks otherwise. when your intellegent, and people know that and cant understand why you would beleive in something that sounds as it does to you now.
  
  that first step takes more faith than simply scrubing it to nonsense, i can say assuredly.

• I’m 16 years old, and I feel kinda hopeless.
  

  im 20 and i havent found a girlfriend yet, so heres the things i would tell you, if you dont want to find yourself i the same situation.
  
  first off, its easy to get a boyfriend/girlfriend. i actually had many oppurtunities now that i think about it, however i always pushed them away when it came to crucial moments. just because you shy, dont let it seem like your not interested in a guy. the reason i did it, is because even though i was sexually attracted to some girls, sometimes my heart would say to me, you dont really like how this person is living, or the things they choose to say and do. so i never let myself get close to girls that i didnt actually like, despite those opportunities. so if you want a guy your going to hate, next time you see a guy, be wearing revealing clothes and welcome his attempts towards you by acting flattered.
  
  also, if anyone asks you if you want to go somewhere with them where there even might be other people at all, go. dont be afraid to ask guys if they have a girlfriend in a offhand humorous way(”i bet your girlfriend wouldnt…”).
  
  hmmm… yep thats all the advice i have to give…
  
  oh, but im glad im the way i am(didnt end up with a girlfriend when i was younger[and slightly more stupid]). it gave me time to make sure i wont screw up with the wrong girl later in life, and i think im better for it.

• Are their happy endings in real life?
  

  there is something that ive learned in life though.
  
  a happy ending is so much more happy when the middle was tough, and it wasnt always that way. movies where there isnt any problem to solve or plot to work through first would be boring anyways.
  
  and kathryn, i agree with you in that, but yeesh… for those of us (me) that havent found that happy ending just yet (mines still to come), your making (me) jealous….
