Well, it’s really too obvious to post here, but it’s my favorite riddle, so I’m going to do it anyhow…

Q: What’s brown and rhymes with snoop?

And when you tell it to Print, a deputy with an inkpad comes out of the USB port. The only problem is when it crashes it can take 2 days before it starts back up, and even then it needs two hours in a jacuzzi and a huge mug of beer before it comes fully out of sleep mode.
