My friend and I have a bet. He says every word in the English language contains at least one vowel. It is my contention that I remember there being one word that exists that isn't an abreveation that doesn't contain a vowel. I want to say it was three letters long. Any English majors out there that can settle this?

They put the emphasis on "at" when it would sound so much better if they simply said, "I remember now where I parked my car"! Invariably, you will hear them say "Now I remember where it's AT"! Another example would be, "I didn't know where you were", but they will almost always say "I didn't know where you was AT"!

these are the real deal originating from actual high school essays. a dark and stormy night......


1. Her face was a perfect oval, like a circle that had its two sides
gently compressed by a Thigh Master.

2. His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like
underpants in a dryer without Cling Free.

3. He spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy
who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those
boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high
schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those
boxes with a pinhole in it.

4. She grew on him like she was a colony of Ecoli and he was
room-temperature Canadian Ham.

5. She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes
just before it throws up.

6. Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever.

7. He was as tall as a six-foot-three-inch tree.

8. The revelation that his marriage of 30 years had disintegrated because
of his wife's infidelity came as a rude shock, like a surcharge at a
formerly surcharge-free ATM.

9. The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a
bowling ball wouldn't.

10. McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled
with vegetable soup.

11. From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie,
surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and Jeopardy
comes on at 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30.

12. Her hair glistened in the rain like a nose hair after a sneeze.

13. The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you fry
them in hot grease.

14. Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the
grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left
Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19
p.m. at a speed of 35 mph.

15. They lived in a typical suburban neighborhood with picket fences that
resembled Nancy Kerrigan's teeth.

Where can I relearn all the stuff that I should know but forogt without going back to school or taking courses that take a long time. I learn fast, I just need a resource to teach me... Sorta like a teacher. But all I can find is "Homework Help" stuff online, which might help if already know how to do most of what your trying to do... But if you don't know any of what you need to do, that wont help much. I need some kind of resource to teach me from the base-up. My main subject in which I need help is math.... I know how to do basic math (adding, subtracting, Multiplying and deviding)... I just for got how to do a lot of the stuff I learned in 5th - 8th grades (I droped out in 8th) in the area of math.

I DVD of some kind that would teach me all subjects of math would be helpfull... Only ones I can find that really cover it all 100% (I think) cost $800 a peice, and I'm not willing to pay that.

Does anyone know any cheap or free resources where I can get this knowlege I need?
