I dunno. We never figured it out. I think it's founded on bio-mechanical math, ie 2 ears, 1 mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladderjhn Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 If a tree "falls down" in the Amazon rainforest and nobody was around but Trump to hear it, does it make a sound? I heard from a buddy that he was seen chopping down said tree with someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real question is: How do we know there's a box at all? And, for the record, our cat will demonstrate with extreme prejudice, to anyone getting too close, that the box is definitely not empty!

Of course they make a noise, to the tune of: "We offer our deepest sympathies to the worker's family and reaffirm our commitment to a safe, ethical and supportive workplace environment for all of our workers. This was a tragic accident and we are doing all we can to investigate the causes to avoid them in future." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
