Yesterday's Answer, Today's Question


Yesterday's Answer:


The biblical phrase, "You are weighed in the balances, and found wanting," is the basis for the idiomatic grafiti-related term, "the writing on the wall."




Today's Question:


Which country is comprised mostly of North Island and South Island?


Could make a guess or two but don't actually know this one.
