I interpret it more as a statement. There are three things that can happen.
1. The nose grows --> truth --> nose shrinks. Refer to 2.
2. The nose shrinks --> lie --> nose grows. Refer to 1.
3. Nothing happens --> lie --> nose grows. Refer to 1.
In the end the stupid nose will be so confused it
Unless he is psychic as well as being a undead piece of wood, nothing
would happen. incorrectly predicting the future isn't lying ;)On 1/9/06, Joan Khoo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

His nose would stay the same size but everything else in the universe would at the same instant shrink.

Then again, is being heavier a good thing or a bad thing? Do we weigh
heavier in terms of good or bad experiences/expectations. And do you

That was the idea wasn't it? :)

I'm not sure if I should be impressed that there is a mathematical

Excellent question Devlon, I suppose that is up to the individual doing the weighing, however I'm sure that this would influence the results and should be accounted for in any proof.My answer (from a few years ago) can be found here:

I would say Thursday because it has one more letter.
Other plus points is that it runs just behind Friday. :)
I'm just reading amatuer fiction on fictionpress.com at work, a obsession of mine but it distracts me enough.

I'm currently collecting acronyms like FUBAR
Hm...the different weights of Thursday and Tuesday...
