    Gloria posed the following riddle to Archie and Meathead.

    Father and son go driving. There's an accident. The father is killed instantly, the son is rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. The surgeon walks in, takes one look at the patient and says, "I can't operate on this boy. He's my son."

    It was a much harder question back then, due to the times.
