It is still the weekend, and this one is a bit of a joke also: What does Jack the Ripper, Attila the Hun, and Winnie the Pooh have in common? Those of you that know this, it is older than the hills; please do not post until around 4:00 EST so the newbi's get a chance to read and wonder...

I can't imagine "THE" answer, i'm sure somewhere in the middle of all that the answer can be found. =)

I have already tried to answer, so if theres two, forgive me. I believe the answer is found in THE middle.

JIllian the word "the" is the correct answer; the punch line of the joke is: they all have the same middle name! One and the same. And the head start for tomorrows stumper for you on the other side of the globe: What are the most read words worldwide each day?
