What's In A Word ...

Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.

The roundest knight at King Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference.

The butcher backed up into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work.

A will is a dead giveaway.

The short fortune teller who escaped from prison was a small medium at large.

A chicken crossing the road: poultry in motion.

Is it coincidence that all the letters in 'listen' are also in 'silent'

And simply because it amused me, I've just read that:

The dot over the letter 'i' is called a tittle.

Where's a trivia quiz when you need one
