Further from Schott's Vocab, a list and explanation of number slang from 1960s New Orleans that's just awesome.

I have always found things such as this and the spelling alphabets great fun. I also can't help but notice that it is a way to take something difficult for most people (a string of numberS) and chunk it into bits, thus speeding it along from one number at a time while still keeping some clarity.

Some not-so-serious suggestions on an improved english.
