effect on the teacher.

Okay, here's the answer to the puzzle. I'm going to give both the
correct punctuation and a little explanation. (Believe me, it needs
it!!):

Ann, while Bob had had "had", had had "had had". "Had had" had had a
better effect on the teacher.

It has to do with grammar. "Had had" is the past participle (I believe)
and Bob had [written] the wrong answer on his HW assignment (or
whatever), which was "had". Ann had [written] the correct answer, which
was "had had". Thus, While Bob had had "had" [on his paper], Ann had had
"had had" on her paper. The fact that Ann had "had had" on her paper
made the teacher happy.

nice! the had had thing was actually an extra credit question in one of
my classes last year. lol. i was soooo confused for a while. haha.

had had whoa!!

I'll have to READ it again, might have missed stuff when I READ it last
time.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I understood the "had had" comment.

Here's something else that's a little strange. Don't think about this or
try to desyfer it, just read it.

If you laeve the frist and lsat lteters aolne, you can raed any snetnece
elasiy eevn thuogh the mdidle ltetres are all fckued up.

I got confused somewhere around 4, and the first "had had"... I was a
math kid...

that`s good
