@Slow_Moving_Vehicle

how were you able to embed the image of the fancy-dan letter?

In Firefox, I right clicked on the image I wanted and selected “Copy Image Link”
I then pasted the link into my reply and Discourse did the rest. This was on a desktop - not sure if I could do it on my phone.

Correct on IQs1 and 3. IQ2 was Peter Piper, who picked a peck of pickled peppers.

DQ: Real?

IQs:

1. Did T.S. Eliot write a love song about you?
