If when you're sick, you're an invalid, when you get better have you been validated?
Can one be gruntled?
Why is the Jack Daniels distillery in a dry county?
A tortise challenges the great Achilles to a race. Achilles, knowing he can go exactly 10 times as fast as the tortise, generously gives the tortise a 1000 meter head start. The race begins. By the time Achilles has covered the first 1000 meters, the tortise, of course, remains in the lead, having moved 100 meters. By the time Achilles covers those 100 meters, the tortise has sprinted with all his tortisely might another 10 meters to retain the lead. Ten meters later for Achilles, and the tortise is still 1 meter ahead. 1 meter for Mr. Indestructable, 1/10 of a meter behind our hero the tortise. Will Achilles ever catch up?
