How muck wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
As much wood as a woodchuck would chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. But what if the woodchuck has a family? It would have to go home to take care of them, so it wouldn’t be able to chuck as much wood. What if it is a little woodchuck? It also wouldn’t be able to chuck as much wood as a bigger woodchuck. What if the woodchuck is a baby? It only would be able to chuck a small twig. Or what if the woodchuck was old and lost its teeth? It couldn’t chuck any wood if that was the case. What if the woodchuck is in a union and so must stop chucking wood at 8 hours worth each day even if it could chuck more wood? What if one woodchuck gets to chuck a soft wood like pine but another woodchuck chucks only oak? You can see this is a deceptively simple question and the answer must take into account a number of factors depending on the life style of the particular woodchuck under consideration.
