IOTA Answer next month Cold Night at the B&B A priest and a nun are travelling back from the seminary when their car breaks down. The local garage won’t open until morning, so they find a small B&B for the night. Unfortunately, there’s only one room left. The priest says, “Sister, I’m sure the Lord would understand if we share the room. I’ll sleep on the sofa, and you can take the bed.” “That sounds perfectly fine,” the nun replies. They say their prayers and settle in for the night. The priest switches on the TV, and the nun takes out her needlework. About ten minutes later, the nun calls out, “Father, I’m very cold.” The priest sighs and says, “Alright, Sister, I’ll get you a blanket from the closet.” Another ten minutes pass. “Father… I’m still terribly cold.” “Don’t worry,” he says. “I’ll get you another blanket.” A few more minutes go by. Then the nun speaks again, this time softly: “Father… I’m still very cold. I don’t think the Lord would mind if, just for one night, we acted as husband and wife…” There’s a pause. “Oh, alright,” says the priest. “Get your own blanket woman, I’m trying to watch the game!” c t i q e n h e u WordWheel The goal of a word wheel puzzle is to create as many words possible with the letters in the word wheel.
