I originally searched the internet, back in February of 2007, to see if I could find this one with a quick Google. Amazingly I did not. I figured after two (2) years, it was good for a re-run. Many years ago, my father gave me this story, showing the human brain is quite adept at being able to read and comprehend even if the words are not spelled properly, or make no seeming sense on the surface. I’m not going to change to a nifty font, or use italics on this one - it’s hard enough when you first start reading it. Work at it for just a bit and I’m reasonably sure you will all know this story. One clue - read the words just as they sound (uh, that would be phonetically) and move quickly along (don’t dawdle - let the sounds run together) and it should soon make sense. Once you get it it’s easy! (By the way - proofing this was a lot harder than you might think!)
