The British royal family shared video online of the Band of the Coldstream Guards playing Dolly Parton's famous song "9 to 5," a tribute to the music superstar and philanthropist who died Tuesday.

"Remembering the late, great Dolly, who brought joy, comfort and inspiration to so many - including the millions of children given free books through her Imagination Library," the post read.

Parton's Imagination Library has gifted more than 200 million books since the organization began in 1995.

The plural of ‘Mr.’ is ‘Messrs.’

Simply adding an 's' to 'Mr.' would make it 'Mrs.,' which would be confusing.

So, the plural is made by shortening the French word for ‘Misters’ (Messieurs).

You got me with this one

Makes sense. By the end of the book, Lockhart knows nothing.

The ‘H’ might be derived from the Greek name of Jesus (ΙΗΣΟΥΣ).

The first 3 letters are transliterated iota-eta-sigma, which can look like ‘ΙΗϹ’ or ‘JHC.’

‘JHC’ was worn on clergy vestments.

We've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.

Point to point course, not record eligible. We can’t stand for this being ratified, some things are sacred!

The guy who invented dial telephones put 250,000 phone switchboard operators out of work. This was the highest paying position for women in the US. The guy who invented it was NOT an engineer or electrician, but rather, a mortician. There were two funeral homes in the town he served… his and a rival. The owner of the rival had a wife who worked as a switchboard operator. Anytime anyone called for A funeral home or HIS funeral home, she would route the call to her husband. He invented the dial phone so customers could explicitly end around switchboard operators and call someone directly. I just love this story.

My one and only interaction with Josh was the shuttle from Falmouth back to Boston. He was the most hungover person I’ve ever seen. Never a doubt greatness was coming!

Watching Gary Oldman laugh himself to tears at fart sounds dubbed over his own scenes might be the best thing you’ll see today.

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Slade Hubbard finished 400 miles at #LAHOTS in 8:06:49:09. “I was climbing a hill and passing two chicken houses . . . the smell was unbearable. The smell stuck with me; I couldn’t shake it for hours and hours. About 20 miles later it struck me, the smell was ME!”
