Witty. "Struck a cord" as in a cord of wood. If die chip should be more around.
Not a cud, it is a small die chip. Good analogy though.
Dropping a Lincoln log.

Lincoln even in the last months of the civil war before he was assassinated could split wood with precision as he'd done with rails etc. in Illinois, there is a story of him visiting troops where he split up a pile of wood.

Clever wording. An interesting find. There should be more of these , one would think. And I agree on die chip, not cud.
You've learned how to speak Emerald.
I really like it. Thanks for posting.

Do you buy it or grow your own?
