I once climbed a steep mountain in search of wisdom.  It took me all afternoon to make the trek.  It was about 4 feet high.  At the summit sat, in lotus position, a very old mystic.  I posed to him that very question, "What's a what's a what's a what?"

He solemnly replied without ever opening his eyes and breaking his trance, "My son, the answer is simple.  "What" is the name of a character in a movie about jousting knights, but I forget the name."

Well, I didn't know what movie that was or what the character's name was so I said, "I don't know, but could you answer my question about what's a what's a what?"

When I said that, he gave me the evil eye and turned me into a newt and kicked me off the playground...I mean off the mountain. 

Is that paragraph even a question?
