Ala Karla With a K:

Today's answer (as opposed to today's question)

I (or someone who has time to add one every day) posts an answer, posters provide the story that lead up to it.

"Because I didn't know the lid was up" Could generate the following story:

Johnny's mother woke up to the clothes dryer running in middle of the night. Perplexed she went to the laundry room only to find Johnny asleep, missing his pajama bottoms, on the floor, and the dyer running.

Curious, she looked in the dryer and saw the bottoms.

Assuming he had wet the bed and was ashamed to let her find out, she carried him back to her room and put him in bed there.

The next morning she went into his bedroom to check and the bed wasn't wet. Confused, she asked johnny why he was drying his pajama bottoms last night. Johnny answered, "Because I didn't know the lid was up"

So the answer for today is, of course: "Because I didn't know the lid was up"

This is a great thread idea. Here is the answer for tomorrow:

He told me that he was a doctor.

What is the question?

Answer: Nobody knows, as it has yet to be done. What is the question?

Theres seem to be abit of confusion... the OP started this thread by giveing an answer, we provide a story, not a question. I dont see a question mark on the answer.

Think of it as the punch line is given then reply by providing a story leading to the punchline.
