L Milton Hankins Poet Light Verse

Basic Jeopardy Facts

A circle has no beginning and no end
An elbow has only one way to bend,
A triangle always has only three sides
No one knows where a platypus resides,
All totaled, a piano has eighty-eight keys
When you kneel, you get on your knees,
The clock ticks once for every second
Do you know the meaning of “fecund?”

Rico Leffanta March 8, 2022 at 11:01 AM Are you suggesting we make women pregnant whilst watching Jeopardy? Sounds like a plan to me! (Well thought and done, Milton) Aloha! Rico Leffanta March 9, 2022 at 10:03 AM No, perhaps because the word is used more commonly in French, than in English? Aloha! L Milton Hankins March 8, 2022 at 12:04 PM Not really, Rico. Just teasing my readers. Most people don't know the meaning of that word, but you obviously do. But, be honest, did you have to look it up????

Kenneth Cheney March 8, 2022 at 9:56 AM Honestly no I don't know the meaning of "fecund" L Milton Hankins March 8, 2022 at 10:03 AM Don't feel bad, Kenneth. Most people don't, and most people are rather surprised when they check the dictionary and find out what it means. Interesting word.
