ANSWERS TO:

The mystery was: 1) Who offered to buy Alex Rule two drinks at the Rotating The Wheels Dinner if he completed a certain task? 2) What was the task? 3) Did he get the two drinks? The answers are: 1) Norm Johnson; 2) Alex Rule had to find Norm’s BBRC guestbook entry and print it out; 3) No, he did not get his free drinks. Poor Alex. It pays to check out the BBRC website. Our lucky winner, who receives no prize whatsoever, is Stewart Martin, who had all the correct answers. Although Phil Salvatori didn’t have the correct answers, he had good,  logical guesses: 1) John Mix, 2) complete the member questionnaire, 3) no. (To Alex’s credit, he has completed his member questionnaire and had his photo taken.)
