My friend told me "I think I overuse hyphens in my writing."

What's in the middle of the Olympic sprinter's hyphenated last name?

a 100 meter dash.

Edit: Previously I had "60 meter dash". Turns out that was indoor sprinting and not Olympics. Fixed.

Punctuation counts.

When to use a hyphen:

The test asked, "What is the capitol of Florida?"

I wrote, "F".

When I got my test back I learned: Apparently, the answer was "F - ".

My girlfriend mentioned that Courtney Cox-Arquette got divorced...

...so now she's Courtney Cox once more. I asked if there was a hyphen between Cox and Once More.

Then she looked at the empty room and said, "Can you believe this guy?". We love each other.
