My Dad used to tell us one about how to get five "ands" in a row in a single sentence, and still make sense. It's about a painter who is commissioned to make a pub sign. The name of the pub is "The Pig and Whistle". The painter asks the pub landlord if there should be any hyphens in the name, to which he replies,
"Yes, put a hyphen between Pig and and, and and and Whistle."
