The beautiful and mysterious Arabelle Whitehouse was a well know high class lady of negotiable affection for the discerning gentlemen from the late 1840's in certain quarters of London. However in 1847, after a short illness her clients were not so impressed to discover from her doctor that 'she' was in fact a man. The practice of 'doing it with the lights on' became quite commonplace for sometime afterwards

The renowned gentleman-explorer Sabastian Elmtree caused great controvesy in 1834 when he registered a claim with the Royal Society to be logged as the discover of Wales. He claimed as no one had previously logged the discovery of the area prior to this date he was clearly within the rules to do so himself and that he was due an appropriate accolade in the history books for doing so. The Royal Society was forced to agree and it's rules were quickly amended to prevent further 'disvoveries' of nearby territories and countries.

Kennedy -v- Lincoln:

====================

* Both presidents were elected to the House of Representatives in 1846/1946.

* Both presidents were elected to the presidency in 1860/1960.

* Lincoln defeated incumbent Vice President John C. Breckenridge for the presidency in 1860; Kennedy defeated incumbent Vice President Richard M. Nixon for the presidency in 1960.

* Both their predecessors left office in their seventies and retired to Pennsylvania. James Buchanan, whom Lincoln succeeded, retired to Lancaster Township; Dwight D. Eisenhower, whom Kennedy succeeded, retired to Gettysburg.

* Both their Vice Presidents and successors were Southern Democrats named Johnson who were born in 1808/1908.

* Both presidents were concerned with the problems of black Americans and made their views strongly known in 1863/1963. Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862, which became law in 1863. In 1963, Kennedy presented his reports to Congress on Civil Rights, and the same year was the famous March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

* Both presidents were shot in the head.

* Both presidents were shot from behind.

* Both presidents were shot on a Friday in the presence of their wives.

* Both presidents were accompanied by another couple.

* The male companion of the other couple was wounded by the assassin.

* Both presidents had a son die during their presidency.

* Lincoln was shot by John Wilkes Booth at Ford's Theatre; Kennedy was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald in a Lincoln automobile, made by Ford.

* Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy who told him not to go to the theatre; Kennedy had a secretary named Evelyn Lincoln who warned him not to go to Dallas (unconfirmed).

* Both presidents' last names have 7 letters.

* Both presidents have five syllables in their full name (which counts Kennedy's middle initial, which is what he was known by).

* There are 6 letters in each Johnson's first name.

* Booth ran from a theatre to a warehouse; Oswald ran from a warehouse to a theatre.

* Both Johnsons were succeeded as President in 1869/1969 by Republicans whose mothers were named Hannah (Ulysses Grant's mother was called Hannah, as was Richard Nixon's)

Years of bitter dispute between the Admiralty and the commanders of the remote Indian Oceon naval base of Fort George were only resolved when the Queen wrote a personal letter to the civilian Commander in 1843 pointing out his volunteer garrison had been flying the Union Flag upside down for the past ten years. Thomas Hartlebury, the commander at the time, resolved the matter by correcting the error and hurling himself off a cliff.

Eaton educated King Cattum of the tiny Herrman Isles in the South Pacific sea successfuly and repeatedly repelled British forces from invading his tiny island home between 1872 and 1892. This was acheived by simply stationing a pair of burly tribal warriors to throw rocks down upon any invaders attempting to land a boat at the islands only natural landing place some 70 yards below. He only relented in 1892 after the islands last supplies of Earl Grey ran out and then the island became a British dependancy.

The longest penis (relative to body size) belongs to the barnacle at somewhere over 25 times. It is coiled inside the shell and is prehensile with sensory organs to seek receptive female barnacles.......

The largest penis in over all size belongs to the blue whale at over 6 foot long.

The largest vagina belongs to your Mum and houses 16 species of invertebrates......

Sorry to be a smart arse but the letter Y is both a consonant and a vowel. It depends on how it's pronounced.

For example used in the word HYMN it's a vowel, in the word BEYOND it's a consonant. So saying these words do not have vowels isn't strictly true..

Sorry to be a smart arse but the letter Y is both a consonant and a vowel. It depends on how it's pronounced.

For example used in the word HYMN it's a vowel, in the word BEYOND it's a consonant. So saying these words do not have vowels isn't strictly true.. "
only in Welsh and that's not a real language....;)

Y is considered a vowel if it makes the sound of one.

So the Y in Sly is a vowel

The Y in Yacht isn't
