Or why the plural of mouse is mice but house is houses? And don't get me started on why it's deer but not deers, and many a goose is geese but many a moose isn't meese?

Whenever I was in elementary school, there was this little rascal from the most backwoods spot on earth struggling with pretty much everything, and I can still recollect ms. McKenzie repeating, over and over again...you spell it out "through" not "true", followed by a looooong sigh...every time;)

Ever wonder why people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours?

Ever wonder why when you transport something by car, it's called a shipment, but when you transport something by ship, it's called cargo?
