I just stumbled this page --
http://fuinfun.com/index.php?page=00021&full=1
I didn't think much of the page, but I did like this:
An English professor wrote the words: A woman without her man is nothing" and asked his students to punctuate it.
All the males students wrote:
"A woman, without her man, is nothing."
All the female students wrote:
"A woman: without her, man is nothing."
Punctuation is powerful!

That was completely hilarious. I bet my fiance and oldest son would have worded it the same way as the men!!

I've seen this a couple times, but every time I look at it, it's great. I'm glad that these women are so confident in themselves. :)

It's cool. The other email-a-go-round I really like is the Professor and his coffee.

I don't think I'm familiar with that one? Could you describe it? I love the kinda spammy emails I get with this kind of stuff, usually from my family.

Very cute. Thanks for sharing. I love phrases where the whole meaning can be changed with punctuation in the right places.

That's very clever indeed. Just shows how something could be easily misunderstood if incorrectly punctuated.
