Back in '93, this was posted on rec.humor.funny. Funny? Well, humorous,
maybe.

This page intentionally left blank.



(Well, not completely blank, since the above non-empty disclaimer
appears on the page. What is meant is that this page is devoid
of meaningful content related to the rest of the document. This
page serves only as a separator between sections, chapters, or
other divisions of the document. This page is not completely
blank so that you know that nothing was unintentionally left out,
or that the page is not blank because of an error in duplication,
or that the page is not blank because of some other production
problem. If this page were really blank, you wouldn't be reading
anything. This page has not been left blank by accident, but is
left non-blank on purpose. The statement on the page should say

"This page was intentionally left non-blank".)
