Here’s a challenge for you – in developing the Philogelos exhibit, we found one joke that is incomplete. Read the comic strip below to learn about the beginning of the joke. (Click on the arrow beside the picture to move to the next panel.) Then, tell us how YOU think this joke would have ended. We will look at all the entries and select what we think is the best ending for the joke. We will publish a completed version of the joke in cartoon form on the NML website and credit you for the ending. Deadline: December 1.

Summary: An idiot was trying to catch a mouse that had been nibbling through his scrolls, so he sat still all night with a piece of meat in his mouth.
