Yes it is ABC Wednesday over at Mrs. Nesbitt's place.
Just head over there to learn how to particapate.
*
*
Here in Canada we pronounce the letter Z as ZED.
*
In the United States it is pronounced ZEE.
*
However it is pronounced, when you see a string of ZZZZ's the impression that you get is that snoring is involved.
*
That is because ZZZZ's is an onomatopoeia for snoring.
*
From Wickepedia:
"Onomatopoeia is a word or a grouping of words that imitates the sound it is describing, suggesting its source object such as "click," "bunk", "clang," "buzz," "bang," or animal noises such as "oink", "slurp", or "meow".

*
Whatever it describes, when I hear the sound of ZZZZZ's I know my husband is snoring and someone (him) is going to get poked in the rib cage.
*
ZZZZZZZZZ
*
Night All.
