Hmmm I wonder if this Imam is with Amelia Earhardt.

Duh! Please explain.

Have they posted the missing Imam's picture on a milk carton yet? Maybe they should put out an Amber Alert for him. Anything to help.

In America we joke about missing people being with Jimmy Hoffa or Amelia Earhardt.

The joke below you from Jauhara is also a cultural reference about missing children being on Milk cartons in the States. I wanted to post pictures of deadbeat dads on beercans but the government had other ideas.

Thanks for this explanation. Much appreciated!

Amelia Erhart is in the drink with Davy Jones somewhere south of Krackatoa.
The Immam is not missing, I saw him delivering milk to the corner shop.
He had charachteristic facial hirsuitedness and a queer look about him.
Kinda spooky, but he reminded me of Benny Hill, well apart from some obvious differences, but I didn't see the bevvy of busty-babes chasing him. Not surprising really.
