Okay, I have to ask, and I'm sure it is a simple answer :lol:, but whats up with your signature........

This sentence is seven words long.

This sentence is not seven words long.


Or are you going to keep me in the dark???

Its funny, we had a really bizarre history teacher in high school. And... my brother was fortunate ... or unfortunate enough to sit right by his desk. He would write down these weird little phrases and stare at my brother with a deadpan look and watch his reaction.

One of the phrases was:

"This sentence is seven words long" (only six words)

"This sentence is not seven words long" (seven words)

Just a simple play on words, but it always makes me laugh thinking of Mr. Whiggs. :)

When we left class he used to tell us to "go play by the train tracks tonight and wear dark clothes!"

or in the middle of class a train would whistle (the school was very near a railroad yard) and he would stop his lecture... wave in the general direction of the whistle and say "that engineer... she's just crazy about me!"

We were in high school and knew not to take him the wrong way, but I do often wonder if he could use some professional help!

Anyway, sorry for the long story... but you asked! :)

I am glad that you asked. I was dying to ask, but I figured it had already been explained somewhere, and I had just missed it. LOL!!!:D
