I had to show you this letter to the editor, How’s this for a bird-brained study?, from the Worcester T & G.

Note the date is October 31, 2010. It is not April 1, 2010. This must be why they invented the acronym ROTFL, which Murray must have done when he saw his letter chosen as the letter of the week.

I don’t know of any seersucker birds, especially not single and double breasted ones. But I think the people who chose this as the letter of the week were almost certainly the suckers.

According to OMG Facts

Dr. Suess coined the word “nerd.”

The term originated in the 1950 book “If I Ran the Zoo”. From the book:

“And then, just to show them, I’ll sail to Ka-Troo. And Bring Back an IT-KUTCH, a PREEP and a PROO, a NERKLE, a NERD, and a SEERSUCKER, too!”
