A guest at one of our state's oldest and most prestigious fat cat private waterfowl camps spent the morning regaling his host and their guide with accounts of all the wonderful things he owned. He had a private jet that cost millions and did this, that and several other remarkable things. His yacht was practically the Queen Mary, cost millions and did this, that and several other remarkable things. His car collection also ran well into the millions and included several of the world's finest that did this, that and several other remarkable things, too. And on, and on, and on until he got to his watch, a marvel of chronography costing hundreds of thousands of dollars that did this, that and several other things better than any other.
By which point his guide had heard enough and asked, "But will that watch do what this $20 Timex will?" Whereupon the guide pulled his watch off, smacked it on the top rail of their blind and tossed it out into the pond.
So could his watch do it too?
