tinyE: Technicality alert!
Yes I'm a dork but....
Active lighthouses don't have caretakers they have light keepers.

Of course in the States I don't know if there are any more light keepers as all of them (I think all) have gone automated.

For bonus points (okay no points but I will be very impressed) and without Google, can anyone tell me the name of the first lighthouse in the U.S. to go totally electric?

trentonlf: Guess no one knows tinyE, so what is the answer?
How sad, and I've no doubt the French members of the GOG family are going to be quite pissed at no one knowing.

Both men are facing in opposite directions

They can both see eachother

Because : po'ta -to the [string] ga'lmih-rror ! Haha. Love it.


Okay, I realise it doesn't sound that funny in English, but in Old Eldritch it is a riot. Cthulhu is still giggling in his sleep.

Because the men are 2 insane twins who are adoring the Potato God in a mental institute.

Don't mock the potato church.
Oh sorry amok, I didn't want to make fun of your potato religion :P
Ah man, I was sure I had to answer to the one about the light.

I was pretty sure that if the light goes off in his house, the man's wife turns into a humongous boob monster (constant light is the only way to keep it from happening). She then rampages throughout the world shooting thick strings of chocolate from her many boobs and then eats the world. The man didn't want to watch the chocolatey end to the world from a ravenous boob monster, so he committed suicide.

Oh well.

I thought the potato riddle was easy, because it depends on the word play for nasty little crevices in the potato's surface called the "eyes," so they were looking at each other through the eyes (though of course I thought it might have something to do with ferrets, Cheez-its and the Festering Potato Dimension of Zoolack the Great), but I guess it's some European old English word trick.
