English Language

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective
nouns for the various groups of  animals.

We are all familiar with a Herd of Cows, a Flock of Chickens, a
School of Fish and a Gaggle of  Geese.

However, less widely known is a Pride of Lions, a Murder of  Crows (as
well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an  Exaltation  of Doves
and, presumably because they look so wise, a Parliament of Owls.

Now consider a group of Baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous,
most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least  intelligent  of
all primates.  And what is the proper collective noun for a group  of
baboons?  Believe it or not ....... a Congress! I guess that pretty
much explains the things that come out of Washington!
