What does the term “buckdancer’s choice” mean, and what is its origin? – Answer
Puzzle of the Day
I am a caller at every home where you may meet, For daily I perambulate along each street. Take one letter from me and still you will see. I’m the same as before, as I’ll always be, Take two letters from me, or three or four. I’ll still be the same as I was before. In fact, I can tell you that all my letters you may take, Yet of me nothing else can you make. – Answer

Little January
Tapped at my door today.
And said, "Put on your winter wraps,
And come outdoors to play."
–Winifred C. Marshall (1761–1839), American writer
