The Letter O for $200

The letter o is such a simple letter. Simple shape. Just a circle. O looks exactly like the shape your mouth makes when you say it's name. O. You're doing it right now, aren't you? Go ahead. You might look like a total mo-ron, but who cares? Make an o with your mouth. It'll make you smile. O is awesome. 



Not only is o a letter, but it's also a word. Not a lot of letters get that kind of responsibility. Just a distinguished handful. I like g as a letter and a word. It's got a certain antiquated characteristic that appeals to the wholesome, Beaver Cleaver side to all of us as in "Aww gee, Dad, do I gotta?" There's i, r, t, u, and the ever popular y. I like those letters just fine and as words they are real humdingers. I couldn't get by without 'em, but they just don't have o's sweet personality. And sure, everyone knows b is a letter and it makes two words, be and bee. But, b is a little show-offy, don'tcha think? A little boastful I think. I like the simplicity of the humble letter o.


Letters as names? It can happen - just look at J and K. Oh come on, who names their kid O, you ask? Well, I can't think of anyone not on meth, but let me ask you this: Would Oprah be as popular if her nickname weren't O? Hmm… alright.  She'd still be popular even if her name was Kay, but I don't know if K Magazine would be the hot seller that O Magazine is.


I like words that end in o, too. Words that end in o are just quirky enough to be noticed when in both the written and spoken form. Buffalo. Ha! Ends in o makes you look twice, doesn't it? Love me a good end-in-o word! Zero, veto, speedo, dingo. Neat-o! And the Brits! The Brits have got it going on with ends in o, too, as in "Cheerio, good chap!" Cheerio - love it! XOXO 



And the foods that end in o … hons, they are divine. Set your taste buds to high because here's a real "Who's Who" of the culinary world. Dorito. Ho Ho. Cappuccino. Oreo. Cheeto. Avocado. Mango. Nacho. Yum-o! And all foods that end in the scrumptious letter o. 

Behold the power of o. Bravo!
