Silliness Friday's Question of the week 20th May 2011 ...

GeoffC · 05-20-2011, 05:08 AM

There's a fork in the road ahead,

shall we go right, or left ?

TGS · 05-20-2011, 06:07 AM

Yes....

Oooh, I know this one.

You ask one of them what the other would say and then take that fork.

Easy

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Thank you Mr. Frost

Or maybe this one is an even better answer...

A Fork In The Road.

As I carry on my load
I meet a choice between two roads
One will lead me to success
while the other promotes distress
the first is brilliant and full of light
the second is dark and harbors fright
the choice is obvious you see
I know which road is right for me
despite the challenges I face
the right road leads me to my place
I sigh and pick up my load
and wander down my chosen road.

Begin humor mode:

Do I go right or left? Nah, I'll get out some road paving equipment and create a road down the center.

Still trying to figure out what a road is.

Fork in the road, darn I knew I left that fork somewhere, glad I found it now I can eat that steak on my plate.

I don't see a fork in the road, spoon maybe but fork no.

Go right or left I would rather sit right here in the middle and bock traffic.

Master Yoda says: Fork road ahead there's a, right we go shall left or?

Yeah going right or left is probably a great idea as I am not found of the idea of crashing into the middle.

<heading down the road in a car fligs a hand up in front of his eyes> "Thats' probably the best thing to do right now"

End humor mode.

A table place setting you start from the right? Soup spoon?
or may be from the left with the salad fork?

Doesn't matter, as long as you don't run your tyre over it...
