Can you punctuate this so it makes sense?

Punctuate and capitalize the following so that it makes sense. You may not add or delete any words or change their order.

john while jim had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher

Update:

It's not allowing me to pick a best answer for some reason. However, "aoife=)" has the first correct answer. Several others were close but missed the capitalization of "Jim" or placed the punctuation outside of the quotations or used single quotes instead of double quotes.

    No. I am anxious to see the answer.

    EDIT:

    Actually I found it online.

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