Let me try to make it clearer.

US states with names spelled the same backwards and forwards, if you learned to spell in the schools of that state?

I understood that, but still not getting the joke. It's okay. I'm tired. I'll probably wake up at 3:00am laughing my ass off.

We had a smutty German pun joke with this one. Wer war der letzte Indianer? Na, Dodi al-Fayed.

It really works only when spoken.

And it helps with a non-rhotic variety of English :)

I think the alternative spelling might work as well?

Problem is, that wouldn't be a pun. Arneb will correct me if I'm wrong, but "wer war der letzte Indianer?" is capable of a non-smutty, "standard" reply. But is the question "wer war der letzte Indiana?" capable of any non-funny reply other than "Harrison Ford"?

If you were responding to me, my remark was about 'santa' or 'satan' both working in the venn diagram Lance posted. :)

Hmmm to get back on topic...

Something or other went up starting at ca. 2300 at the end of September towards the end of October, peaking at more than twice the starting level (about 5,300), then then gradually tapered down to a level below where it started (about 1,000), and there is a lot of statistical noise day-by-day. Even the peakt on 27 October could be due to noise, but it looks like a halfway smooth rise, then a halfway smooth decline.

Some shares index?

But it can hardly be that, as even in the Netherlands, pot is technically illegal.

ETA: Legality of prostitution, maybe?

Not pot.
Not prostitution.

Sex is involved.

Close. But it's more specific bumfoolery.
