Oh how I miss the word of the day. Not so much for the words but for the pleasant company (many of whom have joined the choir invisible). Thanks for the memory :)

Somebody’s gotta do one of these on the word “trow” as in “I trow not” (Luke 17:9 KJV).

A “jot” is the 10th letter of the Hebrew language and the smallest.

A jot is the tenth letter in the Hebrew alphabet and the smallest. It was written above the line and looks to us rather like an apostrophe:

Ahhhh. Just looking at them makes me want to laugh. We all remember the "No Laughing" episode!
COACH BUZZCUT: So, BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD! I understand Mr. McVicker has made a little arrangement for you guys! Yeah, a little probation. You see, class, BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD HERE are not allowed to laugh for a whole week. That's right, AND IF THEY DO LAUGH, they'll be expelled, and they'll have to go to Hope High School, WHERE THEY'LL GET THEIR ASSES KICKED ON A DAILY BASIS BY ALL THE OTHER DELINQUENTS, HA HA HA!!
Well, I was REAL GLAD to hear that, because this is Sex Education Week. That's right, SEX ED WEEK! (He hears Beavis and Butt-Head trying to giggle, so he gets closer to them to start yelling in their faces) We're gonna be talking about THE PENIS!!! (He gets right into Butt-Head's face, as he tries to hold back from laughing) We'll be talking about THE VAGINA!!! DO YOU THINK THAT'S FUNNY, BUTT-HEAD?! DO YOU FIND IT AMUSING THAT WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT THE TESTICLES?! (Butt-Head covers his mouth, to stop himself from giggling too hard) Yessss, we're ALSO gonna be talking about VENEREAL DISEASE! SEXUAL INTERCOURSE! THE SCROTUM! THE CLITORIS! AND... (He then pulls Butt-Head's hand away from his mouth. Butt-Head starts crying from holding it back so hard) AND WE WILL DEFINITELY BE SPENDING A LOT OF TIME TALKING ABOUT MASTURBATION!!!
