    X

    It's to the point, has a strength to it, and when it comes in threes they are naughty.

    A - I always enjoyed receiving them in school and they continue to be useful for a variety of purposes. You can also be pretty profoundly prolific with "p"s.

    my favorite is Y. why you ask? well i always believed that Y was the bastard child, always trying to get "in" but usually shunted to the outskirts with the rascals, the consonants. i mean c'mon, and sometimes Y? it isnt a vowel and it isnt a consonant, its kinda like me, a mixed child...i guess thats why i love the letter Y

    I like W.
    1) It's always written as VV but it's still called "double-u."
    2) In German, it has a "v" sound, so it has versatility.
    3) Who, what, where, when, and why. It's almost got a monopoly! But since that's illegal, we have "how."
    4) It's "Whiskey" in the military's phonetic alphabet, showing that it knows how to have a good time. (Unlike the stuck-up "B".)

    I.
    It is interesting as that in capital words in some fonts such as with the words in CAPS will and ill you have to guess the word that people mean.

    As well, I is one of the most simple and commonly used letters, and it can be used as the only letter to stand for ones self. (I believe...)

Learning, Longing, Living,Lips, Legs,Lithsome and so many more .

    I always liked E- because you can use it in so many words. But L might be more useful, as when it is not capitalized- you can use it as a #1, a line, an L, a little pole, and the basis of all stickmen and gun drawings.

    S, because it's fun to write. B, because I use it pretty often when in a jam- i.e. "But I didn't know," or "Because I SAID so." Much fun :)
