Interesting. I learned, "A Finn And German Viewed Some Hops".


I also learned it with the "Finn And German" version.

It's:

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own...

"A fat-armed German vends ale hops" is what I recall.

I did some of my own for microbiology, and used them for the annual class show, much to the amusement of the micro prof. Example:

Spiral trees bore leopards to bite us, syphilis, jaundice, and meningitis.
Spirochetes: treponema, borrelia, leptospira

Resistor color-codes: Black, Brown, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet, Gray, White.

I'm sure it's been replaced by something more PC by now.


Even back in the '80s our physics professor taught it as "rob" instead of "rape", but we all figured it out.
