Default Punctuation is Powerful!
hi there,

I've received this via e-mail and I want to share it with you :)
Enjoy,

An English professor wrote the words:
“A woman without her man is nothing” in the chalkboard and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.

All of the males in the class wrote:
“A woman, without her man, is nothing.”

All the females in the class wrote:
“A woman: without her, man is nothing.”


regards,
chill out
