6. An explorer has been wandering for days, lost in the Amazonian jungle. Late one night, he blunders into the isolated village of an indigenous tribe, and pleads (using sign language) to be given food and water. The tribal elder indicates (using some strangely sophisticated sign language) that he will be offered what he wants, provided he can pass the villagers' traditional test of manhood.

Desperately hungry and thirsty, the explorer agrees. The elder disappears for a moment, and then reappears, carrying a small toad. He touches the toad's back with the tip of his tongue, and then (after several minutes of staggering around with his eyes all bleary) invites the explorer to do the same.

The explorer licks the toad, and for the next hour his head is filled with the strangest visions and hallucinations.

When the explorer comes to his senses, the elder asks him what he has seen. He replies "It was a strange and unfamiliar dream. I imagined I was an extraordinarily wealthy American businessman, with a strange fascination for sleds. What was this creature you made to lick, that could produce such an effect?"

"Ah" says the elder, it was a ...

Answer: (Three Words (the first 2 are the name of a film, the last word is "toad"))

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What do you call a tennis championship where all the contestants are small furry creatures with pointed orange noses and a tendency to pick up litter?

Answer: Wombledon

"The Wombles", who featured in a fondly remembered children's TV series, included "Tobermory", "Tomsk" and "Great Uncle Bulgaria". I suspect that if we British put one of them up to compete in the actual Wimbledon championship, we'd have a better chance of winning.

2. How many imaginary numbers does it take to change a lightbulb?

Answer: i

A joke for mathematicians. In complex maths, the letter "i" represents the square root of -1, which does not in fact exist, and is therefore termed an imaginary number.

Apparently what would seem to be a mind-bogglingly pointless area of study does have some practical uses, but if you know what they are, you're a better person than i. Boom boom.

3. A man is sitting at a table in a restaurant, when the waiter comes up and asks "Can I get you any Budapest, Sir?". "No" replies the man, "I'm not ...

Answer: hungary

The twin towns of Buda and Pest together form the capital of the great country that is Hungary. One of my friends tells me that Buda is lovely, but not to bother with Pest.

4. What borders Colombia and sings "No Woman No Cry"?

Answer: Bob Marley and the Venezuelas

Venezuela, Columbia and Ecuador used to be part of a single country - Gran Columbia - which gives rise to the following additional joke.

Q: What's fruity and nutty and covers Venezuela, Columbia and Ecuador
A: Granola Colombia.

You're wondering why you bothered reading on, aren't you?

5. I say, I say, I say, did you hear that Andrew Lloyd Webber's writing a new musical, about Calzone on roller skates? It's called ...

Answer: Starlight Pizza Express

Calzone's a type of foldover pizza, in case you didn't know. They don't actually serve them at Pizza Express, which is good, because it makes this joke even stupider than it was already.

I was originally going to do a joke with "Jesus Christ Superstore" as the punchline, but couldn't face all the correction notices from Bible scholars. My guess is that the number of people likely to be offended by a reference to pizza is somewhat less.

6. An explorer has been wandering for days, lost in the Amazonian jungle. Late one night, he blunders into the isolated village of an indigenous tribe, and pleads (using sign language) to be given food and water. The tribal elder indicates (using some strangely sophisticated sign language) that he will be offered what he wants, provided he can pass the villagers' traditional test of manhood. Desperately hungry and thirsty, the explorer agrees. The elder disappears for a moment, and then reappears, carrying a small toad. He touches the toad's back with the tip of his tongue, and then (after several minutes of staggering around with his eyes all bleary) invites the explorer to do the same.

He replies "It was a strange and unfamiliar dream. I imagined I was an extraordinarily wealthy American businessman, with a strange fascination for sleds. What was this creature you made to lick, that could produce such an effect?" "Ah" says the elder, it was a ...

Answer: citizen kane toad

Yes, I really did make you read through all that for the sake of that extremely low-grade punchline. How much do you hate me right now?

NB. I was careful to phrase this question vaguely, so as not to give away the ending to "Citizen Kane". On reflection I needn't have worried, given that it's essentially impossible to understand the ending to "Citizen Kane" even if you've watched it.

7. What did Alexander the Great eat for breakfast?

Answer: Macedonuts

It's been said that Alexander, the Macedonian who conquered most of the then known world, died "tragically young", but this depends on your point of view. I imagine some of the people he conquered might have disagreed.

8. Doctor, Doctor. I keep thinking I'm the 21st president of the United States. Ah, sir, you have a case of ...

Answer: Arthuritis

Several people of note have been called Arthur. Arthur Miller, King Arthur, Toni Arthur from Playschool - the list goes on and on.

9. Did you hear the Queen song about what it's like to be a mushroom in France? It's called ...

Answer: We are the Champignons

Like me, you're probably flagging by this stage. Nearly there.

10. What would you call it if the writers of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Bleak House" got together to raise poultry?

Answer: Dahl's Chickens

But don't worry, they probably won't, as both Roald Dahl and Charles Dickens are sadly no longer with us.
