A joke column pairs a classic three switch puzzle with a Boyle’s law gag. It describes switch B keeping a bulb warm, switch C leaving a lit bulb, and switch A the remaining bulb. Then it spoofs inflating bras on a flight, a hairpin stabbing, and a panic scene plus champagne for dignitaries.
A curious collage discusses high altitude champagne gas, Dolly the sheep style headless embryos, and the toughest sport task. It notes headless chicken Mike and the biathlon’s dual demands, then recalls the ancient Mesoamerican ball game where losing squads faced sacrifice for religious belief.
