Useless facts............
The 3 most valuable brand names on earth are:-
Malboro, Coca-Cola and Budweiser - in that order. Humans are the only primates that don't have pigment in the palms of their hands. The sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." uses every letter in the alphabet. The only 15 letter word that can be spelled without repeating a letter is uncopyrightable. No word in the English dictionary rhymes with month, orange, silver and purple. A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no-one knows why. Months that begin on a Sunday will always have a "Friday the 13th." The longest one-syllable word in the English language is screeched. Apples, not caffeine, are more efficient at waking you up in the morning. A pack-a-day smoker will on average lose 2 teeth, every 10 years. When you sneeze, all bodily functions stop...even your heart. Your feet are bigger in the afternoon than the rest of the day.

Yes, a duck's quack echoes. It's just weak. Also, there's a word that rhymes with orange- sporange, as per the great and mighty Oxford English Dictonary. It's a type of fungus. |
