Puzzler of the week

[Scott MacLean]

This week's puzzler:

There are two guys sitting around, and one of them is looking at a piece of paper. He says, "Hah! This is interesting."

The other guy says, "What's interesting?"

And, the first guy says, "Well, this is a bunch of names of cars, past, present, and future, and there's something interesting about it. I'll read you some of them:

AMC Eagle
Ford Falcon
Dodge Charger
Ford Bronco
Plymouth Colt

And, my personal favorite...Daihatsu Rocky."

The other guy says, "So what?"

But, there is a big deal. What is it that's unique to the names of these cars?

Last week's puzzler:

In the official police handbook for the Springfield Police Department, there are two pages printed in Hungarian. The rest of the book is in English. None of the men or women on the Springfield police force is Hungarian. In fact, not one person in the entire city of Springfield speaks or understands Hungarian.

The question is, why does the official police manual include two pages in Hungarian. Here's a hint: the fact that no person in Springfield understands Hungarian is one of the reasons that Hungarian was chosen.

Last week's puzzler answer:

There were no people that spoke Hungarian - but there was a dog. That's why the police manual has these pages in Hungarian because the police dog understands only Hungarian. There're two good reasons for that. Number one, they were probably trained where? In Hungary. And number two, commands can be given only by the person handling the dog. For example, a would-be felon couldn't tell the dog to sit, stay, roll over or play dead.
