Octothorp Aglet Tittle Pipe Tittle 18 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: TITLE Answer: The small distinguishing mark you see over a lowercase i and a lowercase j is called a tittle – an interesting name that seems like a combination of “tiny” and “little,” and refers to a small point or stroke in writing and printing. Derived from the Latin word titulus, meaning “inscription, heading,” the tittle initially appeared in Latin manuscripts beginning in the 11th century as a way of individualizing the neighboring letters i and j. With the introduction of the Roman-style typeface in the late 1400's, the original large mark was reduced to the small dot we use today.

"May I have some more?" "Give me some more?" "I want some more!" "Can I get some more?" I want some more 21 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: I WANT SOMW MORE Answer: This often misquoted line belongs to the novel Oliver Twist by the English writer Charles Dickens. You may think you know this iconic quote, but your ears or memory may be deceiving you. When young Oliver Twist went up to Mr. Bumble, bowl in hand, to ask for seconds, what exactly did Oliver Twist say? Most people remember it as "Please Sir, may I have some more?", but that phrase was never in the book or in the movies. The actual quote is "Please Sir, I want some more!" Regardless of what he said, Mr. Bumble certainly got the message. Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2

Rafael Nadal Maria Sharapova Roger Federer Serena Williams Maria Sharapova 2 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: MARIA SHARAPOVA Answer: When it comes to tennis and grunting, no one else comes close to Maria Sharapova. The 6-foot-2-inch powerhouse is known for her grit, her groundstrokes, and her grunting. Sharapova's grunts on the court have been measured as high as 105 decibels. Such decibel levels are comparable to an airplane landing or a rock concert heard from the first row.The Russian tennis star stated, "I've done this ever since I started playing tennis and I'm not going to change". The five-time Grand Slam champion and former No.1-ranked women's tennis player in the world, announced her retirement earlier this year.
