Trivia

• All the riddles Erica reads (save for 'Which king of England wore the largest shoes?') are actual riddles found off of the internet, as well as the answers to them.
• Both the title and one riddle ('Which king of England wore the largest shoes?') came from The Pun Song from a version of Alice in Wonderland.
• Apparently, Maxie named her garage Studio G II (while the garage-set from Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman is just named Studio G).
• Each of the 'facts' comes from a different contestant from Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman:

1. People call her 'waterhead' (Khalil, season 1)
2. She's a Chinese yo-yo master (Mike, season 2)
3. She's a critically acclaimed lobster chef (DJ, season 3)
4. She loves muhammara (Talia, season 4)
5. She'll move on and be a cheese farmer (Emmie, season 5)

• Maxie rattles of the PBS 'funding' statement ("Funding for (show) has been provided by (charities) and by contributions to your local PBS station from viewers like you. Thank you!") at the end of her show.
• On the way to her computer, Maxie sings one of the songs that play over the credits at the end of Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman (including giving up and going 'bah, whatever').
• Maxie apparently has a budget of three dollars. Ruff Ruffman himself rarely has enough money to supply when FETCH!ers have to go buy things...So let's be thankful Maxie didn't force her costestants to buy anything.
