I would like to know this too, but I remember a movie that Melanie Griffith is in called Born Yesterday. This movie is a remake of the 1952 comedy classic and has shady real estate magnate John Goodman hiring reporter Don Johnson to smarten up flighty girlfriend Melanie Griffith so she can socialize with government VIPs on a business trip to Washington. What Goodman didn't expect was for Griffith to catch on so fast...or for her to fall for her handsome tutor. But, I remember her reciting a mnemonic device which helps remember each amendment in this movie. I believe it is a rhyme. So, since there are no other answers here, I will attempt to get that movie for the remembering device, and if anyone finds it first, please post it here.
