[Max Whittaker]

I am old but I am young. I am shorter than you.

What am I?

Ummm....a dog? Since a "young" dog (human years) can be old in dog years.

A piece of rock? See, the rock itself is old, but the piece is young in comparison because it was a part of the rock before becoming a piece of a rock...

It makes sense to me.

No. Bootsy was right.

A thought of dog at first, too, then I thought that a lot of animals have different age processes. A cat is supposedly the same as a dog (so I've heard) in that 1 cat year equals 7 human years.
