A friend just sent me this:
Europe in a "few" words
Pythagoras' theorem - 24 words.
Lord's Prayer - 66 words.
Archimedes' Principle - 67 words.
10 Commandments - 179 words.
Gettysburg address - 286 words.
US Declaration of Independence - 1,300 words.
US Constitution with all 27 Amendments – 7,818 words.
EU regulations on the sale of cabbage – 26,911 words
Did you know 'listen' and 'silent' use the same letters?
Do you also know that the words 'race car' spelled backwards still
spells 'race car'?
And that 'eat' is the only word that if you take the first letter and move it to the last, it spells its past tense 'ate'?
And have you noticed that if you rearrange the letters in 'illegal immigrants,' and add just a few more letters, it spells: 'Go home you free-loading, benefit-grabbing, resource-sucking, baby-making , non-English-speaking arseholes and take those other hairy-faced, sandal-wearing, bomb-making, camel-riding, goat-shagging, raggedy-ass bastards with you.'
How weird is that? English really is a strange language, isn't it!!!!!!
