Ok, some time ago, I got this thing and I don't think that I ever found out what the answer was. It is typed exactly as it is on the paper that I have, but I have no idea what the hell the answer is. I ran across it when I was going through some things and thought I'd see if any of y'all had heard this one (and know the answer):

Here is a riddle to rack your brains.
There are 3 words in teh English language that end in "gry".
ONE is angry and the other is hungry.
EveryONE knows what the third ONE means and what it stands for.
EveryONE use them everyday and if you listened carefully, I have given you the third word.

What is it ______gry?
