Maury Maille Puzzler Tower Car Talk Plaza Hahvahd Squayah Our Fair City A note from Car Talk Plaza: The puzzler, exhausted from another strenuous puzzler season, is now on a well-earned summer vacation. During this time, he has left us with what he claims are a number of "classic" offerings from years past. We hope you enjoy them. This Week's Classic Puzzler: A Tale of Two Malaysians... And a Kid RAY: There are two Malaysians standing on the street corner. TOM: I can see it now. "Murray... So, Mario..." By the way, are they in Kuala Lumpur?" RAY: Sure. They're having a conversation. One of them is the father of the other's son. My question isŠ How could this be? Think you know? Drop us a note via http://www.cartalk.com/email/email.html If you're right and we select your answer, we'll ship you a $26 Shameless Commerce Gift Certificate.

Roadside Assistance, Coronary Division RAY: An old guy is driving home. It's late at night. He's be-bopping along the highway and he's some considerable distance from home. Suddenly, he feels himself having a heart attack. He says, "Oh my God. It's the big one." Thinking quickly, he takes the first available exit. As luck would have it, he winds up in a residential neighborhood. It's very late at night. He pulls over to the side of the road behind some parked cars. He's fading fast, but he has the presence of mind to pull out his cell phone and call 911. He says to the dispatcher, "I need help. I'm having a heart attack." TOM: And she says, "Where are you?" RAY: And the conversation goes something like this: "I don't know where I am." "What exit did you take?" "I don't remember." " Were you going north or south or east?" "I don't remember." "Can you tell me what street you're on?" "I'm in the middle of the block. I'm parked. I didn't see any street signs." She says, TOM: "Boy, are you screwed!" RAY: Not quite. She says, "Start blowing the horn. Someone will come out of the house." No one comes out. She then asks him to do one more thing. Minutes later, an ambulance is on its way there and saves his life. What did she ask him to do? And here's the answerŠ http://www.cartalk.com/content/puzzler/ So, did you figure it out?
