Do you like to play guessing games? I certainly do not. What say we give a ići.Pitanje - and even a hint - in the title, so I'll let the story develop and see if you can get to that I write about it. This should be fun.

There is a fair move to the bottom!

man we call our mystery guest (MG) is an amazing British physician, scholar and lexicographer born in London, 1779th His early years were incredibly difficult, to say the least. Its dominant mother suffered severe depression with psychotic features, and his sister is suffering from emotional and mental pain.

His wife and father died at an early age. I, traumatic beyond words, his uncle was his life for cutting the throat,. MG is all that is cool to draw the razor from the hand

MG studied medicine at the time and was treating his stric.Samoubojstva MG finished medical career. It seems that his uncle was a highly respected and popular member of the English Parliament, and MG was responsible for his death.

Interesting -. MG is a childhood neighbor of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for a short time

MG was a sharp hombre. In 1815, he invented the log-log slide rule, which was used for the exponential and root calculations. Although the paper was written to explain the illusion of movement was probably incorrect,. His work turned out to be an important development in the history of the film

MG made ​​an important breakthrough in optics with his work in the retina takes pictures.

It was an immediate smash in the UK, however, he did not become popular in the U.S. until 1920. That's when the Americans went nuts over the crossword.
