I Stumbled upon this back in December and posted it on Facebook. This poem of sorts really reveals just how convoluted English vocabulary and its pronunciation is. I mean, I knew we weren't terribly consistent, but this just takes the cake. See how far you can get reading it aloud to yourself before you trip over a word or phrase; "Font, front, wont, want, grand, and grant" got me.
