  • Money isn't made out of paper, it's made out of linen.
  • There are more plastic flamingos in the U.S, than real ones!
  • No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, and purple.
  • The sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." uses every letter of the alphabet!
