Can't this thread just die? (and no, I wasn't cheating. I honestly don't know what the trick is. I can see the relationships, but then sometimes they don't seem to apply and I'm confused. So I just keep guessing.)

I suppose I'm wise, but not smart.

Wise, but not smart doesn't work.

I guess you're skilled, but not a master.

You suppose, but you don't quite get. Yet.

You seem to have discovered a trick that is usually but not always ( [Wink] ) the case. It is not The Answer.

In any case, I wouldn't call that cheating unless you tried to claim you had figured it out.

Did you want to be told the trick? Or get hints? (Hey, I had to Google the answer to Petals Around the Rose -- I see nothing wrong with giving up after a genuine attempt. [Smile] )

You can yell, but please don't yodel.

You can call on me, but please don't give me a ring.

Shoot the messenger and ignore the note.

When in doubt, flee, but don't run.
