5. 'I am.' is the shortest complete sentence in the English language.
6. Q. What occurs more often in December than any other month?
A. Conception.
7. Q. If you were to spell out numbers, how far would you have to go until you could find the letter a ?
A. One thousand.
8. Q. What do bullet-proof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers, and laser printers all have in common?

10. In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase 'goodnight, sleep
tight'.
11. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the
honey month or what we know today as the honeymoon.
12. In ancient England a person could not have sex unless you had consent of the King (unless you were in the Royal Family). When anyone wanted to have a baby, they got consent of the King. The King gave them a placard that they hung on their door while they were having sex. The
placard had F.*.* K (Fornication Under Consent of the King) on it.
Now you know where that word came from.
13. Last but not least: In Scotland, a new game was invented. It was entitled 'Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden' and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.

No as I understand it "fuck" Dublin vernacular used by prostitutes touting for business back in the 13th / 14th Century - which in my mind at least ( unless I am proven wrong ) calls into question the veracity of the rest of his statements.

Okay, I found this about it
WORD HISTORY: The obscenity fuck is a very old word and has been considered shocking from the first, though it is seen in print much more often now than in the past. Its first known occurrence, in code because of its unacceptability, is in a poem composed in a mixture of Latin and English sometime before 1500. The poem, which satirizes the Carmelite friars of Cambridge, England, takes its title, â€œFlen flyys,â€ from the first words of its opening line, â€œFlen, flyys, and freris,â€ that is, â€œfleas, flies, and The line that contains fuck reads â€œNon sunt in coeli, quia gxddbov xxkxzt pg The Latin words â€œNon sunt in coeli, quia,â€ mean â€œthey are not in heaven, The code â€œgxddbov xxkxzt pg ifmkâ€ is easily broken by simply substituting the preceding letter in the alphabet, keeping in mind differences in the alphabet and in spelling between then and now: i was then used for both i and j; v was used for both u and v; and vv was used for w. This yields â€œfvccant vvivys of The whole thus reads in translation: â€œThey are not in heaven because they fuck wives of Ely .â€

The P.O.S.H thing comes from the days of the Raj, when the richer people paid to have cabins on the cooler side of the ship on the boat trip to India. The sun would bake the cabins on one side to India, and on the other side on the way back.... or so i heard on Radio 4....

Dutch game, played with a club (kolve) being corrupted to golf..
In gact..

Does it Stand for "Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden"?
Did the word "golf" originate as an acronym for "gentlemen only, ladies forbidden"? That's a common old wives' tale. Or, in this case, more likely an old husband's tale.
No, "golf" is not an acronym for "gentlemen only, ladies forbidden." If you've ever heard that, forget it immediately. Better yet, find the person who told you and let them know it's not true.
Like most modern words, the word "golf" derives from older languages and dialects. In this case, the languages in question are medieval Dutch and old Scots.
The medieval Dutch word "kolf" or "kolve" meant "club." It is believed that word passed to the Scots, whose old Scots dialect transformed the word into "golve," "gowl" or "gouf."
By the 16th Century, the word "golf" had emerged.
