Continuing on the Afghan theme:
"The war on terrorism took a strange and sad turn Friday as airline
officials at O'Hare International Airport refused to let a 73-year-old
grandmother board her plane. She had in her possession two, six-inch
knitting needles. Apparently authorities were worried that she might
knit an Afghan.

Magic Carpet Ride:

A power point slide presentation about the World Trade Center is not included in this web page because of download time. Check it out in its own separate link on the index page. You might need the Microsoft Office power point program to run it.

NASA MSFC security reports that a cell of 4 terrorists have infiltrated the ranks of NASA employees and has been operating at the NASA center.
Police advised earlier today that 3 of the 4 have been detained. NASA security stated that the terrorists Bin Sleepin, Bin Drinkin and Bin Fightin have been arrested on immigration issues. Security advises further that they can find no one fitting the description of the fourth cell member, Bin Workin, in the area. Police are confident that anyone who looks like Bin Workin will be very easy to spot.

No one knew where the term "high steppin strutter" comes from. The three birds associated with it are: "chicks and ducks and geese better scurry, when I take you out in my surrey." The high steppin strutters are the two horses, "one's like snow, the other's more like milk." from the show Oklahoma!

The next challenge is to solve this word and number puzzle:
Example: 16 = O in a P
Answer: 16 Ounces in a Pound
26 = L of the A (Letters of the Alphabet)
1001 = AN (Arabian Nights)
88 = PK (Piano Keys)
64 = S on a CB (Squares on a Checker Board)
7 = W of the AW (Wonders of the Ancient World)
76 = T in the BP (Trombones in the Big Parade)

So what is:
21 = D on a D
No one can get this one.
21 is what? 21 gun salute? 21 = black jack game?
Help!

Happy Halloween with the first full moon since 1955.
