Somewhere amongst our possessions sits a genuine Swiss Army Knife - manufactured by Victorinox. And then there's the business portfolio I carry from time to time with the Swiss Army logo; it is made by Wenger - the "manufacturer of the genuine Swiss Army Knife". In our closet we have an officially licensed Swiss Army suitcase also made by the "maker of the genuine Swiss Army Knife" - Swiss Gear.
If all these people claim to make the same thing, can there really be a genuine Swiss Army Knife? In fact, does a "neutral" country even have an army? And if there is no army, is there even a knife?
I submit that this entire Swiss Army Knife thing is a fraud. Perpetrated, I'm sure, by those same people that try to pass off the servers at Olive Garden as real Italians.

Heresey, that what you say! I submit that there, in fact, is a genuine Swiss Army. How else would you explain their by product, Swiss Cheese? There's a little known fact that the Swiss army meticulously spear the delicate fromage with their bayonnets providing us with the aromatic and unique looking holy cheese that we know and love. How else could you explain that fragant piece of heaven that ends up slovenly on your mushroom swiss burger. If the damn italians realized the value of this savory dish, no doubt they would be serving it at the olive garden. By the way, have you ever had an olive at the olive garden? That seems to be more of an ironic misconception.
Interesting observation regarding Olives at the Olive Garden. It occurs to me that I've never seen Chili on the menu at Chili's either. Hmm, those Swiss are pretty cagey!
I think I saw Jimmy Cagey in that gangster film, White Heat, or was that Cagney and Lacey? Anyway, I like your conclusions. Now, you'll tell me that you've never seen Carlos Delgado at Carlos Murphy's either.
But I did see Murphy Brown at Carlos Murphy's. In fact, last week I also saw Secretariat at Charlie Trotter's.
That's like saying you saw Don King at Burger King! I think I saw Denny McLain drinking at a Denny's.
Last week I saw Dolly Parton downing some wings at Hooters.
I saw the Who at Hooters.
For Pete's sake! Are they in Town again? It's usually many Moons between appearances. Did you see them in the John?
Roger, over and out.
I suppose I should say Entwhistle while you work! I heard Tommy used to, but he was a pinball wizard. Strange, he quit when he met his new boss who turned out to be same as the old boss.
Hey, you can't fool me. By the way, what's it like to be hated?
Ask Baba wawa or O'Reilly.
Is that a fact-or?
My Generation would say so.
Who are you?
The one behind blue eyes
I think that's just a front.
