the good ol' spectrum one...ROYGBIV...Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain

Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain

That is definitely harder to remember than ROYGBIV.

 

[quddusaliquddus]

there's one really good one out there for the monarchs of England - heard it on the radio once. Unfortunately I forgot it too.

LOL I have never heard it but there is a little ditty for remembering the fate of Henry VIII's wives.

Divorced, beheaded, died
Divorced, beheaded, survived.

And if you want to go backwards through the spectrum: Virgins In Bed Give You Orgasms Repeatedly. Nice and easy to remember that one.

LOL that is pretty good... actually my biology classification version of ShawnD's isn't quite as good
