Comment (by sluicebox):

 Thank you for reminding me that I said I'd pick him up from an airport!

 I thought it would be fun to learn AGI this year, and it was, but I also
 broke this so maybe not *that* amazing =)

 The rhymes that crash are the ones from #13820:

 * Hickory Dickory Dock
 * Crooked Man
 * Jack Sprat
 * Old Woman Who Lived In A Shoe
 * Banbury Cross

 Their rhyme text boxes are so big that Sierra placed them over the menu
 bar up top. That's so unusual that, according to a scan I did, it doesn't
 happen in other AGI games. The authors of our AGI code understandably
 didn't expect that, so those message boxes didn't work. I changed the
 graphics code so that it would draw, but now I see that the code that
 clears the message box also needs adjustments.

 Thanks for bisecting this. This was the first real computer game I ever
 played. Now I "just" need to sit down with a lot of scratch paper, draw
 some diagrams, and do some children's arithmetic. (we're doomed!)
