Unknown Reindeer
----------------
The game show contestant was only 200 points behind the leader and was
about to answer the final question -- worth 500 points!
"To be today's champion," the show's smiling host intoned, "name two of
Santa's reindeer."
The contestant, a man in his early thirties, gave a sigh of relief,
gratified that he had drawn such an easy question. "Rudolph!" he said
confidently, "and ... Olive!"
The studio audience started to applaud (which the little sign above their
heads said to do), but the clapping quickly faded into mumbling. The
confused host replied, "Yes, we'll accept Rudolph, but could you please
explain 'Olive'?"
"You know," the man circled his hand forward impatiently and began to sing,
"Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw
it, you would even say it glows. *Olive,* the other reindeer..."
73, David ZL3AI.
