I'm gonna have to call you out on that one, I actually can lick my elbow.
You can lick your elbow, but only if you're a woman. Men can't do it.

EDIT: Well, Gene Simmons probably could. The actual challenge as I've heard it is to kiss your elbow, which really is impossible to do if you are male.
Yet another problem, I'm a male, and again, I am able to lick my elbow...

Anyway, A group of geese is called a gaggle. A group of ravens is called a murder. And a group of owls is called a parliament.

In Missouri, last I checked it is illegal to use artificial coloring in butter (yellow butter = illegal) and it is illegal to use the word butter to describe any other type of product that isn't butter. Such as "I can't Believe It's not Butter!" = illegal, soy butter = illegal because it isn't the butter that comes from dairy products.

The word ?and? appears 46,277 times in the bible.

I don't know about owls so it might be but I remember it being a parliament of rooks because they got that name because of the stories of them congregating in fields and standing around cawing at each other. It is possible that there are other collective nouns for them that I don'r know about.
