Pips!

My daughter got a cool book at the local book-fair called . . . I don't know what the book is called, but HEY LOOK AT THIS THAT SHE FOUND IN IT!


Nice. I didn't know that. Did you know that?

Oh, hey look! Wikipedia has some good info too.

Ahhhhh, so the clubs, hearts, spades, and diamonds on cards are also called pips, and the dots on dominoes are also called pips. OK, now we're learning stuff. Nice.

Thank you random fact book and Wikipedia!

Someone should go in to Wikipedia and add in that the dots around a player's battle circle in Wizard101 are called pips . . . jus' sayin' :-)

Happy Dueling!

  5. XD 'Pip' is also another word to mean seed, like from an orange or apple. lol I found that in Sherlock Holmes. And it's also what you call the little sections on the skin of a pineapple.

    It's weird that I know all that, yet I can't remember what I had for breakfast today.

  6. Not for nothing, but 'Pip-pip' is one of many British colloquialisms for good-bye. :)
