Oysters Rarely Lymph
The Washington Post runs, it seems, an annual contest, in which participants are invited to redefine words in a humorous way. My favorites among this year's winners (which, while all over the Web, are not to be found on the Post site) are "Oyster," which really ought to be adopted here in New York, and "Lymph," the absurdity of which is worthy of Lewis Carroll, even if he would never have stooped. PS: Annoying music alert. (Thanks to Randy Lindel)

Now this is a riot. Except for one mis-spelling! (A life-long habit I cannot get rid of, recoiling from mis-spelt woids.)
