A Google-a-Day Puzzle for Nov. 27

Geek Culture Internet

Our good friends at Google run a daily puzzle challenge and asked us to help get them out to the geeky masses. Each day’s puzzle will task your googling skills a little more, leading you to Google mastery. Each morning at 12:01 a.m. Eastern time you’ll see a new puzzle, and the previous day’s answer (in invisitext) posted here.

.answer:hover {color:#333;}

SPOILER WARNING:
As a test, we’re going to leave the comments on so people can work together to find the answer. As such, if you want to figure it out all by yourself, DON’T READ THE COMMENTS!

Also, with the knowledge that because others may publish their answers before you do, if you want to be able to search for information without accidentally seeing the answer somewhere, you can use the Google-a-Day site’s search tool, which will automatically filter out published answers, to give you a spoiler-free experience.

And now, without further ado, we give you…

TODAY’S PUZZLE:

Only one part of your body has no blood supply. Where does it get its oxygen?

YESTERDAY’S ANSWER (mouseover to see):

Search [17th century Dutch flower speculators] and learn that “tulipmania” drove the price of individual tulip bulbs through the roof! Search [tulipmania’s most expensive bulb] to learn that it was the Semper Augustus.
