      Stole this one from the internet: How did Mark legally marry three women in Michigan, without divorcing any of them, becoming legally separated, or any of them dying?



      The answer is he's the minister or officiant of the weddings, not that he himself is getting married to the three women.

                      ok, for those flinching about the chest=egg riddle, may I REMIND you that it was in french, " un petit coffret" and I did my best to translate. in this case "chest " was like a treasure chest.

                        Zero.

                        Butts aren't from new cigarettes.
