. . . so if you don't like it, it's not my fault.
Q. How do you get a Canadian to say, "I'm sorry"? A. Step on his foot. <rim shot> |

If a riddle has an answer then why is it a riddle?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

I personally agree it is not the best term for this type of joke, but
word meanings are a changing, tommy. Soon all communication will be a riddle. why was the word "meme" destroyed from its original meaning and there is now no word to express that concept? why is "magic" the equivalent to "special" in marketing? why does "fact" now imply an option? the answer is "blowing in the wind."

That wasn't an original answer, but it's my favorite. My solution was "They both have quills."
