In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. In old England, when customers became unruly, the bartender would yell at them to mind their own "pints and quarts" and settle down. From that, we got the abbreviated phrase "mind your P's and Q's."

Are you sure? People never order a quart of bitter in any pub I've ever been to. It's pints and halves.

you can comp the area of a square by the circle's pi R squared method IF:

you take half the side to be R
and you take a new pi (sub s for square) as 4

The only engine used by both the axis and allies in wwii was the flathead ford v-8.

Hitler never used the main door of the Krupps house, at the insitence of Berthe, the 'damned dirty little corporal' was required to use the servant's door.

The two greatest aces in the Luftwaffe of WWII, Hans Ulrich Rudel and Charles Bartmann, were originally replacements when the eastern front opened.
