Tripp was talking to one of his classmates while his teacher was giving the lesson.  To avoid singling out Tripp, the teacher made a general statement, saying, “There is to be no talking to your neighbor.” 

Unchagrinned, Tripp continued the conversation with his classmate until his teacher became infuriated.  She said, “Tripp, you heard what I said. There is to be no talking to your neighbor!”

Pointing to his classmate, Tripp innocently said, “I wasn’t.  I was talking to him.  And I don’t even have a cell phone.”
