[McGonagall's Cat]

In Chapter 21, The Unknowable Room, Hermione gives Ron a hard time because Madam Rosemerta didn't laugh at his joke about The Hag, The Healer, and the Mimbulus Mimbletonia.


Your challenge:

Please tell us the joke about The Hag, The Healer, and The Mimbulus Mimbletonia.

Make it funny, or clever, or even a "groaner"!

[McGonagall's Cat]

While sitting in St. Mungo's coffee shop, a noted healer was making notes and organizing his parchments for a symposium on Curse Induced Insanity.

The hag sitting beside him watched with interest for a while then naturally broached the subject, asking, "Would you mind telling me, how exactly you detect such a problem in somebody who appears quite normal?"

"Nothing is easier," he replied. "You ask a simple question
which anyone should answer with no trouble. If the person
hesitates, that puts you on the track."

"What sort of question?"

"Well, you might ask him, 'Captain Cook made three trips
around the world in search of Mimbulus Mimbletonias and died during one of them. Which one?'"

The hag thought a moment, then said with a nervous
laugh, "You wouldn't happen to have another example would
you? I must confess I don't know much about Wizarding history."


(The Mimbulus Mimbletonia was tossed overboard when he died....)
