Btw: Whatever Happened To --

Now that we've solved the mystery 
     of dotting the i and crossing the t

   Whatever happened to dotting the j
     and crossing the f -- frankly

   And as long as we've come this far
     here's a 'hardy-har-har:'

     If x is for xylophone
     and z is for zoo
   Then ILY still says I Love You

Gershon, this made me smile. :) It made me think of the people who don't speak using good grammar for some reason. "Way" better". She "brung" my hat. And how does one spell the word another? I often hear, "nuther". YIKES. TWC: This was cute.
