After last week's best-of-baseball-answers extravaganza — which some of you loved, some of you didn't — we're back to all new questions this week with a little something for everyone: hard science, linguistics, television, gambling and... well, of course, baseball. But just a little!

What does the "H" stand for in Jesus H. Christ?

- Mike from Mississauga

This question is probably on the verge of being blasphemous, but I'll just assume Mike from Mississauga saw Our Lord and Saviour wearing a jersey with "H. Christ" on the back and was legitimately curious.

I can think of some things it probably doesn't stand for:

Hayden - Too trendy
Hortense - Too untrendy (and feminine)
Hamburglar - Too cool
Homer - D'oh!
Hank - I dunno, just seems unlikely
Hussein - Come on, no one could become so popular with this middle name!

A safe answer might be "Holy" — I seem to recall songs saying "Holy is your name" — but that's just speculation.
