I have 4 "clues" to which I need answers: 1) Location is 16-K on your Mapsco. 2) Nickname "mom". 3) Age & religion: Marjorie Morningstar. 4) Favorite cartoon in daily News. "I have abandoned my search for truth & am now looking for a good fantasy." The person presenting these clues is a woman. Apparently the clues describe various facets of her. In this context, the answer to #2 seems fairly clear. Also, #1 is reasonably straight forward. A "Mapsco" must be a little booklet containing various pieces of city maps. In this instance, the Mapsco is probably from Dallas, possibly from Fort Worth. Would someone in Dalllas tell me what 16-K refers to? However, the last two clues don't make much sense to me at all. Who is Marjorie Morningstar? A comic strip character? I'm not sure whether or not the final quote is part of clue 4. Is there some Daily News cartoon to which this quote would apply? Send me answers and comments and all post a summary to the net. -- Chuck dartvax!chuck
