No WORD in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple.

It is impossible for any word to rhyme with any four words that don't also rhyme with each other.

The very first item is completely untrue.

Churchill's mother was at a house party at Blenheim Palace, the principal seat of the dukes of Marlborough, and went into labor during a ball. He was born in a bedroom near the ballroom. The 'ladies room' story apparently started because the bedroom had been used by the ladies for their wraps and jackets, which had to be taken off the bed.

Blenheim Palace is hardly a 'dance hall'!

Not to nitpick but a lunation is the time between full moons. It is a bit more than 29-1/2 days. Since February is 28 or 29 days long it is possible to have a February with no full moon but this must happen more often than once in all of recorded history. I would hazard a guess that it must happen at least once every 400 years.

The rest are pretty cool though

Interesting list, but I wonder how much of it has been fact-checked?

BTW kudos for posting the entire article. It was fun to read.

If the entire population of China walked past you -8 abreast, PLA-style- , the procession of humanity would never end because of the rate of reproduction (!)

Nonsense...if they were all walking by me, they wouldn't be procreating.
