SnoGlobe Sidecar...Giveaway

I was going to say zero since woodchucks can't chuck wood but the internet proved me wrong.

We have a WINNER. !!!

Cal, the personal Caretaker of Sidecar Willie, aka Sir Wilton from the house of Calvin, has been relentless..... relentless I say.....and has finally, after 3 tries, come up with the correct answer.

The SnoGlobe Sidecar has found a new home, and will arrive in Southern Illinois before Christmas.

Don’t leave us hanging, Miles.

Well, Kevin, if you don't already know the answer that that question about:

"How much wood would a Woodchuck chuck if a Woodchuck could chuck wood?"

The answer is:

 "He would chuck as much wood as a Woodchuck could if a Woodchuck could chuck wood."

Whilst there are a few different variations of the tongue twister available  around the World, this is the answer I was looking for, and the most widely accepted West of the Cascades.

BTW, it turns out that this SnoGlobe Sidecar was found and purchased by my wife, whilst we were in Heidelberg, Germany in April 2019.  There is a year 'round Christmas shop in the main tourist shopping area, and she bought it from this shop.

Being the maths person you are I would have thought you were looking for the 700 lb answer.

-----

Researchers at Cornell determined that a woodchuck could chuck about 700 pounds.

“Compared to beavers, groundhogs/woodchucks are not adept at moving timber, although some will chew wood. A wildlife biologist once measured the inside volume of a typical woodchuck burrow and estimated that — if wood filled the hole instead of dirt — the industrious animal would have chucked about 700 pounds’ worth.”

Miles. Seriously. It sounds like this snoglobe might be something special to your wife? By all means. You can keep it if you wish.

I'll go a step further and suggest you should keep it. Seems like it's from a special time. And she might get mad at you if you gave away "HER" snoglobe,,,lol.

Cal, Caretaker of Sidecar Willie, aka Sir Wilton from the house of Calvin, three notes here:

# 1: The package has already been dropped off at the Post Office, and a Tracking # has already been sent to Sir Wilton Wallace via an e-mail.

# 2: After committing this SnoGlobe Sidecar to be given as a gift.....and a whiner....er...winner was proclaimed and announced, it was then that I found out from my wife that she was the one that bought it, where, and when, so....I was now in the dog house, but a commitment is a commitment, and I never go back on a commitment.

# 3: Wife declared.......declared I say.....that this makes for a good reason (excuse) to revisit that same Christmas store in Heidelberg, to find and purchase a new SnoGlobe Sidecar, and to have a hot Latte in the shop across the cobbled lane. (they have Gingerbread cookies too)

Ergo, and Therefore, it can be viewed as a Win, a Loss, and a Win .......

Carry On, intrepid sidecarists

Very cool 😎 

I hesitated to post sooner because this is not a good video. Here's the winner with his prize!! He hates his picture took. He won't hold still for it,,,lol.

Thanks FM!!
