We'll reveal all next weekend. But for now, let's open up THE ANSWERS BOX and discover the results of the November 7, 2015 Puzzle Corner.

NEXT?
The start of a specific sequence is below. Can you fill in the blank with the next item?
10:01, 11:11, 12:21, 13:31, 14:41, 15:51, ???

The clue was the colon : to indicate that the list is actually palindromic times on a twenty-four hour digital clock.
Considering there is only 60 minutes in an hour, the next item on the list would be 20:02, followed by 21:12, 22:22, 23:32, 00:00, 01:10, 02:20, 03:30, 04:40 and 05:50. Any time reading after that would not be a palindrome until you reached 10:01 again.

AKA (Also Known As)
Marvin Lee Aday is better known as what famous celebrity name?

Meatloaf (Paradise By the Dashboard Lights, Two Out of Three Ain't Bad, etc.)
