1. The French verbs that are conjugated with etre in the passe compose: (ahem) Aller, venir, entrer, sortir, monter, descendre, arriver, rester, partir, retourner, tomber, mourir, and naitre. Also, the de- and re- forms of each of those. There is a song we used to remember them.

2. "Maitre corbeau sur un arbre perche, tenait en son bec un fromage. Maitre renard par l'odeur alleche, lui tint a pue pres ce langage..." Another stupid French song. Although, it had no real use, so maybe it shouldn't count.

3. Sorry to steal one of yours, Dave, but I will never forget FOIL.

4. White people hate, have always hated, and will always hate black people.

5. The first president of the United States was John Hanson, not George Washington. Everyone forgets that lapse in judgment that was the Articles of Confederation, but I remember! Thank you, Mr. Hancock. You inspired me greatly.

1) Ovid's Latin poetry was written in dactylic hexameter.
2) The Holy Roman Empire is regarded as the First Reich.
3) The destruction of the battleship "Maine" during the Spanish-American War was actually an ammunition malfunction.
4) The square root of negative one = i.
5) Stoichiometry is the process of balancing chemical equations. And it sucks.
