A riddle

okay, I've just realized that almost a week of the holidays is almost over, heck, and I've still have holiday assignments to do. Shit.

anyway, I've been wandering around and getting lost in the internet. but i stumbled upon some nice riddles, pretty funny and mind-boggling. hahah.


here's one:

Many many years ago when I was twenty three,
I got married to a widow who was pretty as could be.
This widow had a grown-up daughter Who had hair of red.
My father fell in love with her,
And soon the two were wed.
This made my dad my son-in-lawAnd changed my very life.
My daughter was my mother,
For she was my father's wife.
To complicate the matters worse,
Although it brought me joy,
I soon became the fatherOf a bouncing baby boy.
My little baby then becameA brother-in-law to dad.
And so became my uncle,
Though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle,
Then that also made him brotherTo the widow's grown-up daughterWho, of course,
was my step-mother.Father's wife then had a son,
Who kept them on the run.And he became my grandson,
For he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother And it makes me blue.
Because, although she is my wife,She's my grandmother too.
If my wife is my grandmother,Then I am her grandchild.
And every time I think of it,It simply drives me wild.
For now I have becomeThe strangest case you ever saw.
As the husband of my grandmother,
I am my own grandpa!

Take your time and read, it confused me too, at first. But after reading a few times, i understood. Wouldn't it be cool if we could have some sort of stupid relationships like that??!!!?

oh ya, i bought grey contact lens and my family is like freaking' out because they say i look blind. hah.
