That naughty rhymes thread reminded me of this. And I have two to share.

Did you know that if you put an X on the end of Tampa, Florida, it becomes Tampax, Florida? Yeah, I made that up.

And a circle with a line in it, that sort of looks like a letter Q? That means intercourse. Made that up too.

Please share!
