THE PEOPLE OF PERPLEX CITY ARE FASCINATED BY EARTH CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS.

UNFORTUNATELY, THE CRACKER JOKES HAVE BECOME SEPARATED FROM THEIR PUNCHLINES! WITHOUT EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF EARTH TRIVIA, THE PERPLEX CITIZENS CAN'T WORK OUT HOW TO PUT THEM BACK TOGETHER.

 		As the questions and answers are unnumbered, has anyone worked out how we will be supposed to enter the answer to this card without typing in all the questions and answers? (I realise this is academic until that section of the site is live, but I'm hoping that won't be too much longer!!)

 		At the risk of being severely Trouted I'm going to have to play the dense American here.

By process of elimination I've managed to work out the riddle which has the answer of M.T.G.G.. I'm even able to figure out that the first two letters refer to the word Empty. I just don't get the G. G. part. Mebbie it's funnier in England. Wink
