Question of the Day
What was the first network to broadcast color television programming?
Answer


Puzzle of the Day
What is that which is full of holes and yet holds water?
Answer


Art thou gone?—then fare thee well!
Many a good do I remember
Of thee, that I fain would tell;
Many a dream beyond all trouble;
Many a feast where beer did bubble;
Many a jolly beauty toasted;
Many a mighty turkey roasted.

–Bryan Walker Procter, English poet (1787–1874)
