Title: Silly Facts
Post by: dell boy on Thursday, September 27, 2007, 13:51:07
Anyone got any silly facts? Here are mine to start:


"Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand .

And "lollipop" is the longest word typed with your right hand.

No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple.

"Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "mt".?

There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious."

TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.

A "jiffy" is an actual unit of time for 1/100th of a second.

A shark is the only fish that can blink with both eyes.

Almonds are a member of the peach family.

Leonardo Da Vinci invented the scissors

Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite!

The word Celtic was invented in the early 1800's by Oxford University to group non-Anglo Saxon tribes living on the island from, um, well, Anglo-saxon's.

All tribes were known by their own names, such as Picts, Britons, Cornwallum's, Welsh, Caledonians, Dralanders, Irish etc etc etc etc (yawn)

 Oh I see it was meant to be a silly fact, I thought it was rather sensible and worthy of thought...I forgot that was what the thread was about, after it morphed into Dell Boy digging a hole for himself to fall into.
