Riffed from the Headlines is our weekly quiz where we choose three riffs linked by one story in the news. Guess the story that links the riffs and you could win a Day 6 tote bag and a personalized note from our very own Brent Bambury.

Last week's clues were Gummibar with I Am A Gummy Bear, Gloria Gaynor with I Will Survive and the Police with Walking on the Moon.

Christina Colalillo of Toronto correctly guessed the headline we were looking for: Israel spacecraft accidentally dumps thousands of ancient tardigrades — also known as 'water bears' — on the moon.

Congratulations, Christina! A Day 6 tote bag is on its way to you.
