magpies

[lesdawson]

If you see one magpie it's supposed to be bad luck! But if you see one magpie, say from a car, and then 50 yards later you see another!! Is that two magpies or one magpie twice?? 

When does one become two?

 

[Imagine]

If you see the two magpies at the same time, or just one, then seconds later, that would be two.

If you see one, and then a minute later, you saw another, that would be one magpie times two. Then again, it's more of an opinion. Some might argue that if you see 1 magpie, and then 3 hours later you saw another, thats another, so you've seen two magpies - it's opinion.

Depends if it's the same magpie
