3. “There is a word in the English language with only one vowel, which occurs six times: indivisibility.”
4. “Facetious and abstemious contain all the vowels in the correct order.”
5. “There are only four words in the English language which end in “-dous”: tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.”
6. “‘Acre’ literally means the amount of land plowable in one day.”
7. “Coca-Cola was never green.”
8. “Any month that has a Friday the 13th also has a Wednesday the 25th.” (…and a Thu the 13th)
