Today was extraordinarily uneventful. I was a bit under the weather, so I just laid low and got some work done on my computer and did some reading.
And so I turned to Google to help me find something new. I found this site: LSNED (Learn Something New Every Day). I scrolled down until I found this post, in which I learned:
"In tennis scoring, love means zero. This is believed to come from the French word l’oeuf, for egg. The egg shape signifies a round zero, just as they say “goose-egg” in American baseball."
Who knew? Or should I say qui savait?

Now I just need to find a way to work this into my next fine dining dinner conversation.
Wait, I don't have any fine dining. Guess I'll just spit it out sometime to try to look smart.
