I once read in "Woodchucker Monthly" (a delightful read) that if the average wood chucker could chuck wood, then the average woodchucker would chuck around 600 board feet per hour. However it doesn't specify if it were Balsa wood or Ironwood.

Stupid...
If you ask a stupid question to a "stupid" person do you get a stupid answer? Have I worded that correctly? If so,
Consider this.
Depends on the person and what his intelligence level and stupidity levels are percentaged at and what given direction. There is no such person who can be called "stupid" ... and no answer reply that is (given) is EVER a loss for thought.

New Question:What is the cheapest way to run a computer?
The Bob (2004 ©)
amwbonfire
Lol, AMW.Inc.? My business... It's called "The Bob". So please forward all complaints to The Bob.
The Bob's email is... wait, better not give it out. Don't want him getting spammed. Send it to me instead! mail@amwbonfire.com if you would like to spam me (don't bother, I've got nifty spam blockers, and A LOT of time. But try anyway!)
Hm, it depends on what you mean by run. I'll assume you mean operate.
The cheapest way to run it is to turn off the monitor, because that uses roughly double the amount of electricity as the rest of the computer. Secondly, turn off the computer, because that's using power too. And, as we know, electricity costs money, and we're looking to run it cheaply.
After that, disconnect your peripherals, as they could be draining electricity when you're not looking. Next, go to your fuse box and turn off electricity to your house. This is wasting money, and you don't need that. After disconnecting your electricity supply, blow up your streets overhead power lines, or it's underground power lines. A simple bomb should do it. Now, go to your power grid, and blow that up too. You'll want to make sure the backup generators are also taken out by the blast, as these will just kick in when the main power is down. This will cost money, and you don't want that.
After solving the problem for your city, you'll now want to go to all surrounding cities and blow up their energy sources as well. This will mean everyone runs their computers at the lowest possible cost! Your neighbours will be really pleased with this money-saving idea, and frankly, you'll be happy too!
New question: How come fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?

It is the way they are said. Fat Chance is normally said harshly and Slim Chance is normally said with less of a kick in it.
