1. Ladybugs be pretty holy. The Yiddish word for ladybug is meshiekhl - little Messiah. In French the ladybug is called Marienkaefer - Mary's beetle and in French its bete a bon dieu - the dear L-rd's animal." In England the insect is called ladybird, short for 'Our Lady's bird' - our lady being the Virgin Mary (Kvetch).

2. Maine is the only 1 syllable state (Blanca).

3. In Yiddish, a woman's three collective mitsves - hadloke (lighting the candles on Shabbat and other fesitvals), khale (burning a piece of baked Challah to commemorate the challah that would have been set aside for the priests if the Temple were still standing) and nide (ritual bath after menstration) - are Khanoh - Khale, Nide, Hadloke. In a similar fashion you can say that someone speaks spek yidish - bacon Yiddish - based on Shmuk, Puts, Kugl - about as much Yiddish as they goyim are likely to know (Kvetch).
