Climbing the Mast

"Horatio?"

"What is it, Archie?"

"Horatio, I feel like climbing the mast."

"To check on the repairs?"

"I didn't mean up there, Horatio."

"Then what do you mean, Archie?"

"I mean I feel like going up the mast."

"So you just said, Archie. But if you don't mean... going up top, then what do you mean?"

"I mean *your* mast, Horatio."

"Uh... Ohhh! Oh, I see what you mean, Archie."

"Horatio, there are times when I worry about you."

"But why would you do that, Archie?"
