Liar Paradox

The first claim in this box is false.

If the preceding claim is true, then it must be false, right? But if it's false, then what it says is true. So, if it's true, it's false, and if it's false, it's true. Which is it?

Thought I'd let you ponder that one for a minute, it's part of my fun philosophy homework.
What do you think?

The first claim in the box is illogical. This is a way for liberal professors to manipulate ideas so they can make any claim sound relevant. Have fun in Philosophy.
Ha ha ha.
By the way this is Jeff, but I don't have an account so I had to post as anonymous.
