How long is a piece of string?

A piece of string goes into a pub an sits down. The bartender says you have to leave we dont serve string here. The string goes out to the street and asks a man to tie him in a knot. The man does it but as he ties the knot the ends of the string become frayed. The string says thats ok and walks back into the pub a sits down. The bartender says, aren't you that piece of string I kicked out of here before. The string says no I'm a frayed knot.

yes indeed, this is an ancient mathematical law, first described by the eminent 11th Century Arabic scientist/philosopher, Ablokeinnapub.

it depends from which end you measure it

A piece of string has to be 'bout, hmmm......that long.

How did Avondrow know that,must be a pub quiz buff. Will rember that piece of usless info for future quizzes. Whats a piece that is longer or shorter? You will have to ask your man in the pub.

I know some one who has a tin full of string. The label on the tin states 'string too short for use'! Next time I see them I will measure these and let you know how long a piece of string is.

2X half length.
