The Gryphon and the Mock Turtle "Oh, they does, you know! Some believes one way and some believes another. They're usually both wrong, and that's the funny part of it! "Take here the puzzle about George and the monkey—you heard it?" "I don't believe I have," replied Alice. "Well, there was this here monkey standing on a hand organ. A little boy, George, wanted to tease the monkey, and so he walked around the organ. But as he walked around, the monkey kept turning and faced George the whole time. After George walked completely around the organ, had he walked around the monkey or not?" Alice thought about this for quite a while. 3
