In the UK, but not here.
Ask Jeeves was the first search engine I ever used. It was before I had my own computer and was using the ones at the local library. I hadn't a clue as how to find anything, so I typed my query into the address bar and was directed to the AskJeeves website.
It didn't take me long to discover that the answers weren't what I really wanted and to find out that there were much better search engines. Still, I remember Jeeves with fondness because he was my "first".
As for the question posed in the above screenshot: No, there's no such thing as a free lunch.
Google "TANSTAAFL" if you don't believe me.
Too bad our Congress and President haven't Googled it.

I had to answer I wouldn't eat any food in there.
That's because there's not any food in there.

A young man entered a bar and asked for a glass of water. The person behind the bar produced a gun and pointed it at the man. He replied, "Thank you," and walked off.
Why?
The answer will be in the comments section, so no peeking until you're ready to verify your answer or give up!
