This reminds me of something very interesting, the Cheetah only hunts one species--a type of gazelle. Once it dies, the cheetah dies.
You see, the cheetah has a hooking claw, and when it catches up with what it's chasing, it trips the gazelle, pins it down, then clamps down on the wind pipe with its mouth, choking the beast.

I'm going to go with a sabre tooth tiger. Humans used to use the foot as our primary means of transportation. Since then, we've evolved to using bicycles... then cars. Just sabre tooth tigers eventually became... cheetahs?
I thought turtle was a good guess!
-a car's speed is many times faster than 'use of the foot'
-a cheetah's speed is many that of a turtle
ummm.
The foot is the final decision in the car moving, it is the final effect which triggers the rest of the parts to move. What is the cheetah's 'final effect'? could be the muscles, or the brain, or just some type of motivation...

Oh how long...
Ok, I suspect car and cheetah are choosen for the link of speed. Cheetah, if I am not mistaken is the fastest land creature. As for vehicles, though EMV trains can travel fast these days, the record must go to that land-bassed rocket car which has broken the sound barrier, obtaining >1000kmph. If the Cheetah and Car are therefore NOT related in any way to speed, the puzzle is misleading - A Lion could have been choosen instead of a Cheetah, or a push-bycicle instead of a car.
Ok, on the premise that speed is an important factor, what about foot?
Foot (singular) implies a link to the car, as such that a human uses a single FOOT to move the cars accelerator and break peddles (assumption of automatic transmission given).
Foot is also used to express a slower means of transportation. For example, "He travelled by FOOT (Singlar)", yet he would obviously use both feet. Foot therefore could represent the slower, more natural means of transportation of the entity in question, whilst car could represent a fast, alternative transportation.
Foot could also be a measurement. What relationship that has to a car is ambiguous and therefore of no consequence.
Now the Cheetah cannot really be considered an alternative means of transportation (like the car), unless the entity in question is a flea which is going for a ride on it's back.
If the entity is the Cheetah and alternative transportation is not WALK (A Cheetah's natural transportation means) then alternative transportation idea would be logically eliminated.
The foot indirectly controls the car. Does anything directly or indirectly control the Cheetah? There could be a 1000 things. Other animals, human hunters, food, brain function, desire, etc. If the solution to the puzzle revolves around the Cheetah's motive or means of control, the puzzle is therefore misleading, as any creature could have been choosen.
What is left?
I fear that this puzzle is going to turn out to be either 1) illogical 2) a trick or a wise crack, a play on words designed to throw logical thought.
Regards.

Insight, I agree with you completely. I also fear this will wind up being a logical trick that spun us all. I thought through all of the scenarios you posed (except I didn't think of foot as a measurement) and cannot think of anything better than a parasite (flea), which it is not. I was certain it must be a symbiotic relationship..... So I will just wait and see what he says. Do hope he spills the beans soon!

Boy,
You make Satan look like an angel.
All of the sentences underlined are fragments. I know it is hard for you to keep up with the more intelligent. Do you need to lie down on something? Maybe you should go back to school, were you will practice saying the alphabet, and all those other things you have trouble doing.
As for the analogy, I think it's about time I give you the answer.
Car is to gas as cheetah is to food (prey).
Car is to engine as cheetah is to muscle (strength).
Car shaft is to drive shaft (assuming it's back wheel drive) as cheetah is to tendons.
Which leaves us with foot.
Though the brain of the human, and that of the cheetah, are the ones deciding when and where they stop or go, the foot of the human applies the tranfer from thought to action. In the cheetah, this is through the pawls.

There, figure out the profound analogy.
Cuz (Because [you will find that 'caus is slang]) it's profound, and requires no guessing.
Oh... and the answer, not my opinion, is that Science is to answer how, as Philosophy is to answer why.

All of the sentences underlined are fragments. I know it is hard for you to keep up with the more intelligent. Do you need to lie down on something? Maybe you should go back to school, were you will practice saying the alphabet, and all those other things you have trouble doing.
As for the analogy, I think it's about time I give you the answer.
Car is to gas as cheetah is to food (prey).
Car is to engine as cheetah is to muscle (strength).
Car shaft is to drive shaft (assuming it's back wheel drive) as cheetah is to tendons.
Which leaves us with foot.
Though the brain of the human, and that of the cheetah, are the ones deciding when and where they stop or go, the foot of the human applies the tranfer from thought to action. In the cheetah, this is through the pawls.
Car : Foot :: Cheetah : Pawls

To Joshua 555:
I enjoyed very much your analogy and I would like more if you have.
I did not enjoyed at all the post of people that think about theirselves like Gods that must know everythig:
men quick feel hurts if they doesn't know something:typical from men!!!
The way that some of you express yourselves was very digusting.
If you dont feel you are able to resolve the analogys I invite you to look for more challenge forums according to your level.
The best you can do Ruckus is to smoke more:maybe your ideas will be clear.
To Joshua:Thanks again and I am ready for the next!!

Where are the pawls? The FOOT maybe?
Does not the human foot get much of it's support and lift from it's TOES?
You sneakily used a substitute phrase which encapsulates the functionality of the FOOT on the Cheetah. The paws are really a cats TOES. The paws alone do not allow a cat to walk, it needs the whole foot.
Why did you use Cheetah and not cat? A coy to throw our attention onto matters of speed. Had you used CAT, the function of movement would have become the focus, rather than speed. Cheetah was a sneaky and misleading form of Cat.

555J kinda explicitly tells us that it is a DOOR knob. I suppose you could use a door knob as a number of things; Hammer comes to mind, a shoe horn (A little spikey) - how about a curtain tie? A toy to throw in the garden - you have to get the spikey bit to stick in the ground, a furnature roller?

Actually, no. You see, muscle is the driving force, foot is not. I have no idea how to compare legs to a car.
And I have to come up with a new analogy.

I got one:
If a rooster lays an egg right on top of the roof and the roof is a perfect point, the egg is perfectly shaped to be equal weight on both sides of the egg and there is absolutely no external influences that can make the egg move in any direction (wind, etc), what would happen to the egg? Would it fall left, right or stay where it is forever?

What you are saying is that two people of the opposite sex can not even comunicate without some kind of romantic involvment. I find that shallow, and somewhat sexist. Especially in a world where sex is supposed to have nothing to do with friendship. Quite frankly it seams you have no female friends, and you have no idea what you're missing out on. (Ouch! Double prepositions at the end!) Indead, all men seam to want to talk about is sports and sex. I've always had female friends, and I never considered them anything other than friends. I never wanted to stay away from girls growing up (as most boys do). I didn't care.

First comes friendship

It would be very sad if someone had a friendship with someone for 10 years, then up and started dating and married a stranger, only to findout that they cannot be friends with that person. Lets be logical here. Sad to say this is a BIG mistake many make. Once you start to date someone, desires take over, clouding judgement, falsifying friendship - which will wair off and reveal the truth. Clean, chaste, longterm friendship is the best way to ensure a suitable marriage mate. This applies to males & females.

Are you angry?Are you mad?Are you glad?What is she doing here?
At the very beginning in another discussion forum one of the men there just throught me out from there.
I have read (to you Joshua) about your new question about differences between men and women.
I invite all of you to go there to analize this topic.
Supposedly more men than women in the sciences, I think I have the answer Supposedly more men than women in the sciences, I think I have the answe""rI have come to the conclusion that it isn't women's minds which are the problem, it's the men's. You see, this world is full of sexist motherfuckers who still think a woman's place is in the kitchen. Though no one has to--nor should--listen to those who feel that way, but women still feel unwelcome.
There are women everywhere in this forum, though some of you are to dumb to notice. And anyone who is too shallow to accept that women have just as much right to be here is too shallow to be alive.
The problem is women and men are different. At some point you just have to face it.

Samantha,
Glad I did not upset you. My observation did not seam like that sort of thing to cause offense. I expected it to be laughed off - or to be used as a stepping stone to the next level
5JJJ,
Is it sexist for a man to be attracted to a woman? Is it sexist for a man to look at a woman, see her beauty, the wonder of her design (evolution if you are in that camp) and marvel? See the glistening eyes, the becoming lips, the tuck of the cheek as her smile curls slowly up her face? to follow that smile past the shadows of light on her baby soft skin, before enbracing her hair as flowing crown of beauty?
Chemical processes take place in a mans body when he just looks at a woman - infact, the mere thought that he is talking to a woman WILL change a mans behavior. It's biological. This is not sexism.
Where sexism comes in is where a woman is denied something simply because of their gender, or stereotyped to certain types or work etc.
Sad that it does happen. It's ignorance of the part of the ones that hold this bias. They are missing out. Humans are riddled with inequality. Racism, Hate crimes, Social and Economic descrimination, sexism... it's all over. All one can do it try and work on themself to remove such traints. A happier life is the result.

Are you angry?Are you mad?Are you glad?What is she doing here?
You don't have to worry about any of this--at least from some members.
You definitly won't be getting it from "THEY", Samantha, Janus20, Millford30, 1more?...I can't think of whom else. Oh yeah, "THEY" 2, doesn't really matter, there isn't much of a chance you will be talking to her at all. (She's ten).

There are women everywhere in this forum, though some of you are to dumb to notice.
Damn! I didn't put two o's in this.

Glad I did not upset you. My observation did not seam like that sort of thing to cause offense. I expected it to be laughed off - or to be used as a stepping stone to the next level
I was just afraid you scared her away--on account of my age.

Is it sexist for a man to be attracted to a woman? Is it sexist for a man to look at a woman, see her beauty, the wonder of her design (evolution if you are in that camp) and marvel? See the glistening eyes, the becoming lips, the tuck of the cheek as her smile curls slowly up her face? to follow that smile past the shadows of light on her baby soft skin, before enbracing her hair as flowing crown of beauty?
Is it sexist for a man to be attracted to every woman? Is it sexist for a man to look at a woman, and only see her beauty--and if she has none, walk away--the wonder of her design, and nothing else? If he's unable to see anything beyond what's in front of him--her intelligence, since of humor, and overall personality? To see all women as objects of passion and nothing more? Is this sexist?

Yes, exactly. An artist - a musician for example - expresses a part of himself in the music he plays on his instrument.
So what expresses itself through a human, God?
