Last to post wins

This worked quite well on another forum site.

It may float or sink on this one. We'll find out.

Don't ask what you will win being the last to post, it will be something useless.

But have a go anyway.

I'm last to post so far. Am I a winner?

Whichever - the idea is that my existence is uncertain until the a box is opened to reveal whether I am there or not. indeed, the probability exists that I am in all or none, simultaneously.

I thinks this works out to be a simple 50/50 chance I will be in whichever box & not in wichever box... I'm not sure what they look like, of-course, but they might look like: 🎁 &/or 📦.

Okay, if I acknowledge there are six sides to a box, then one side has a '0' on it, it's opposite side has a '1' on it, another side has a '?' on it & its' opposite has a on it & the last two are vacant so you can see or pass directly through from one side & out the other.... Toss the die, Wolfie!

The Uncertainty Principal is alive & well. 😺 No one knows if & when I am ever here at al, not even while I am typing.

When I say I've been fishing, unless you can smell the fish I almost caught, then how can you know if I am fishing?

while you were fishing, did you watch the basket that had the caught fish? or did I eat them?

Come here; let me smell you. If you smell fishy all over, even your breath, I am surely going to suspect eating. If only your fur is fishy, I am going to suspect rolling in. If the basket is entirely empty, I'm going to suspect you have a lot of mouths to feed. 😺That's okay if you are feeding others, (as well as yourself).

I don't suppose you think I can do the loaves & fishes trick? 😼

Be a miracle, if I could, wouldn't it?

If so, what would it be if I could decide where to go first, with all the food, much needed for so many people all around the world?

How would you decide?
