S_C's advice column

Hey Everyone :) I'm Kate and a level 2 mod on here. I've had this account since July 2004, so I've been on here since I was 13! Wow ... crazy for me to think how long ago that was. I will admit I don't check in as often as I once did, but being away at college, being in a sorority, and having a job when I'm not at school is very time consuming. I still try to help out as much as possible, and if you send me a question I WILL answer it. This site helped me a LOT when I was in high school and had a lot of questions, and I'm here to help anyone who needs it :) Feel free to write in my forum or send me a question any time!

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would chuck wood?

People keep saying this all around me, and I don't get it.

Some people say it like this:

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would chuck wood?

Some people say it like this:

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

is there more to thsi or something? Is it from some movie about woodchucks or something? Why do people say "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"

Help! I feel STUPID because I don't understand!

It's just a tongue twister - something you try to see if you can say really fast...
