    Thanks everyone for playing. We have 3 prizes left I'll ask the next 3 questions tomorrow probably around the same time maybe a little earlier, I'll let everyone know. I've also got an idea for a bonus question and prize (I warn you it's not a pretty prize) but you would need the Newest Red Book Guide to Morgans by Bowers. I think it's 2007. Let me know if anyone's got it.

    How about some riddles. There are 2 easy riddles you have to answer BOTH correctly, the fastest one to PM me wins. (There are 3 coins left).

    Answer both.

    1. The more of them you take, the more you leave behind. What are they?

    2. The Pope has it but he does not use it.
    Your father has it but your mother uses it.
    Nuns do not need it.
    Aronold Schwarzenegger has a big one,
    Michael J. Fox has a small one.
    What is it?
