A does not come before B, if you're picked up by a cop and he tells you to state the alphabet starting with Z.
This is a letsrun message board, so I had to disagree.
because alpha comes before beta. because alef comes before bet. or something like that.

J should ALWAYS follow B.

The song is called "swingin the alphabet". A classic 3 stooges short that starts out with the boys as service station employees.
Clear to taxi.
Why is it so hard to understand that by placing J after B like in BJ, one of women's greatest gifts to men can be seen!
h = hotel
