    -- What sort of book titles do you think could be found on the Voodoo Lady's bookshelf? Y'know, things like "The Joy of Hex," or "Screams of My Father."
    "The Joy Of Hex"

    -- For reasons that defy explanation, we're trying to enumerate dozens of unique kinds of winds, things like "The Wind the Blows Off Your Hat," or "The Wind that Sounds Remarkably Like an Unhappy Echidna." Can you think of any others?
    "A Northwest-By-Southeast Wind" always seemed funny to me.

    The only way I got past that part was by using every item I had. Only in the past few years did I find out what a Monkey Wrench was (honestly, spanner is a better word).
