Puzzler: “With a Little Help from NATO”
Prof. Jeff Forrester shares the new puzzler - looking for a place:
A bilious Muppet,
Took a visit to Peru,
To wade where the river meets the sea.
A cowboy’s drink can induce,
Dreams of a beautiful nymph,
Of a jagged mountain range,
And a dance that takes two.
