• "� Quadratic Equation �": Here's a link to the Mathworld website where you can read the definition of a quadratic equation.

  If you tell me you understand this � no. Don't tell me if you understand this.

• "� Uvula �": From the Merriam-Webster Unabridged: "The pendent fleshy lobe in the middle of the posterior border of the soft palate."

  From the Galen Glossary: "The hangy thingy at the back of your throat."

• "� Seinfeld Episode �": One of the famous episodes in the Seinfeld series was the one where he had a date with a girl whose name he didn't know. The relationship had gone too far for him to ask again, so he tried one trick after another.

  At one point he said that it was tough having a name like Jerry because kids in school would make fun of it: "Jerry, Jerry, dingleberry," was the example. She responded by saying how difficult it was to have a name which rhymed with a feminine part of the body.

  They decided her name must be "Mulva."

  Her name was ... Delores.
