"To laugh often and much... to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children . . . to leave the world a better place. . . & to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived...

This is to have succeeded

The crazy thing about the ENGLISH LANGUAGE

Here are some "crazy" things about the ENGLISH Language:

-- There is no "egg' in eggplant

-- No ham in hamburger

-- And neither pine nor apple in pineapple

-- French Fries were invented in ENGLAND

-- Boxing rings are SQUARE

-- A Guinea Pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a Pig

The rest of what was sent to me wasn't that interesting so I end this here. =)

Till next time...

All languages have soemthing crazy like that. A rollercoster in Spanish is montana russa (Russian mounatins) and rollercosters have nothing to do with Russia
