Ok I promise not to post endless brain teasers, but G pointed out that there is a Part 2 for the puzzle I posted this morning. 

This one has actually made my brain melt...  whosoever can turn this into a sane utterance has SKILLZ


Can you punctuate the words in the sentences below so that they make sense?  None of the words are shown capitalized so as not to give any hints as to the beginning or ending of the sentences.

James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher

Oh, this one I know!

James, while John had had "had", had had "had had". "Had had" had had a better effect on the teacher.

Flipping heck.
Ok, you get the genius badge!
(All of my attempts involved ludicrous exchanges with someone called "Had")

Like Steer, I'd seen it before. So not genius, sadly.

*Grin* I know it but only because I've seen it before.

This eventually will turn into the Buffalo sentence:

Oh, look! Where [livejournal.com profile] ivory_goddess had 'had had "had", had had "had had". "Had had" had had', [livejournal.com profile] sarah_mum had 'had "had had", had had "had had had". "had had" had'. If only one of them would change their user name to Had.
