Even creepier are these comments by Tippi.
"Although she stresses now that his trainer, Ron Oxley was always shadowing his animal" and "He loved to sleep on Melanie’s bed, she writes, and ‘one night I went down to find them both asleep, side by side’." I guess you have to imagine with Ron Oxley in the room watching both the Lion and Melanie while they slept! |

You would probably find a piece of paper with the phrase, "read other side" written on both sides interesting and hold your interest for quite a while. Of course this maybe over your head.

For the last few hours, I've been fumbling with this paper that has the words "THE OTHER SIDE IS A LIE" on both sides of it.
I'll get back to you when I figure it out.

Yes, you're right, aces. Actually your post wasn't interesting at all. As to the simplistic closed loop paradox of "The statement on the other side of this card is false," you should find the following explanation of the well-known Yablo's Paradox much more interesting, since Yablo claimed it was not self-referential as in the example you cited. This is the variant that I use to amuse myself when I'm not laughing at your posts:

Yablo's paradox arises from considering the following infinite set of sentences: http://www.accionfilosofica.com/misc/1183297103crs.pdf Hope that clears it up for you. If you were a mentalist, you'd know that such paradoxes form the basis of many powerful routines. |

So I did what you said, and picked the side I thought was Side A, and explained to my wife which side was false and which was true. But then she goes and spoils it all by turning the paper over and telling me that that side was Side A. And danged if that wasn't true too. So now I can't find Side B.

Again as I said before you make a statement that has nothing to do with the topic in order to make yourself sound intelligent. It is not working. I simply said the paper reads ""read other side". I feel you find it amusing and entertaining and keep reading it for a period of time until you realize....
