Why did the 2235 movement I repaired last week only get 260degrees of amplitude, yet there were many new parts and it was properly cleaned and lubricated.?

Many things are possible especially if all the correct conditions are met. So although your premise doesn’t take into consideration all the necessary elements it is entirely possible the outcome could actually be achieved.

Since I answered your question quite thoroughly I have a question for you.

So are you trying to get Ghonerea?

Just like the Carpenters I have such an innate ability to attract birds they just flock to me no matter where I go.

You failed to place your tongue in your right inside cheek of your mouth as you swung a rubber chicken around your head.

Patience is a virtue and judging by your question this is something you would be better served if I did not answer.

Sometimes in life there are those things you come across that one will ask themselves how in the world could this possibly ever be. Sometimes simple explanations just can’t possibly ever address all of these oddities that tend to be so unique and so out of the norm.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

If that's too hard, which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Some would say to get to the other side. Actually this is a cop out. If you study and look really hard it was because Lizzie Borden was chasing it.

Take the number 30, divide it by 1/2, and then add 10. What do you get? (asked by my son)
