test.
Watch the spelling! Some of the best in humor is in the misspelling....

all
the inhabitants have to live elsewhere.
2.. Moses led the Hebrew slaves to the Red Sea where they made
unleavened
bread, which is bread made without any ingredients. Moses went up on
Mount
Cyanide to get the Ten Commandments. He died before he ever reached
Canada.
3.. Solomon had three hundred wives and seven hundred porcupines.
4.. The Greeks were a highly sculptured people, and without them we
wouldn't
have history. The Greeks also had myths. A myth is a female moth.

After
his death, his career suffered a dramatic decline.
6.. In the Olympic games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled biscuits, and

8.. Joan of Arc was burnt to a steak and was canonized by Bernard Shaw.
9.. Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen". As a queen she was a
success.
When she exposed herself before her troops they all shouted, "Hurrah!"
10. It was an age of great inventions and discoveries. Guttenberg
invented
removable type and the Bible. Another important invention was the
circulation of blood. Sir Walter Raleigh is a historical figure because
he
invented cigarettes and started smoking. Sir Francis Drake circumcised
the
world with a 100-foot clipper.
11. The greatest writer of the Renaissance was William Shakespeare. He
was
born in the year 1564, supposedly on his birthday. He never made much
money
and is famous only because of his plays. He wrote tragedies, comedies
and
hysterectomies all in Islamic pentameter. Romeo and Juliet are an
example of
a heroic couple. Romeo's last wish was to be laid by Juliet.
12. Writing at the same time as Shakespeare was Miguel Cervantes. He
wrote
"Donkey Hote". The next great author was John Milton. Milton wrote
"Paradise
Lost." Then his wife died and he wrote "Paradise Regained." 13.
Delegates
from the original 13 states formed the Contented Congress. Thomas

Declaration of Independence. Franklin discovered electricity by rubbing
two
cats backward and declared, "A horse divided against itself cannot
stand."
Franklin died in 1790 and is still dead.
14.. Abraham Lincoln became Americas greatest Precedent. Lincoln's
mother
died in infancy, and he was born in a log cabin which he built with his
own

Proclamation. On the night of April 14, 1865, Lincoln went to the
theater

They
believe the assinator was John Wilkes Booth, a supposingly insane actor.

number of children. In between he practiced on an old spinster which he
kept
in his attic. Bach died from 1750 to the present. Bach was the most
famous
composer in the world and so was Handel. Handel was half German, half
Italian and half English. He was very large.
16.. Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he
wrote
loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was
calling
for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died for this.
17.. The nineteenth century was a time of great many thoughts and
inventions. People stopped reproducing by hand and started reproducing
by
machine. The invention of the steamboat caused a network of rivers to
spring
up. Cyrus McCormick invented the McCormick raper, which did the work of
hundred men. Louis Pasteur discovered a cure for rabbits. Charles Darwin
was
a naturalist who wrote the "Organ of the Species."
Madman Curie discovered the radio. And Karl Marx became the first of the
Marx Brothers.
