I should know some additional ones, seeing as I work in medicine, but nothing comes to mind. Those ones are great though!

barbara, with you in mind, I’m trying to make the McMac theme more user friendly but brightening up the links from that horrid grey.
They do this on I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue on BBC Radio 4. Some of the definitions are enough to make you spit coffee through your nose and pee your pants at the same time.
Very dignified, eh

I think my favorite was what you be before you be ten.

Oh dear. Maybe Dick the medical expert can also suggest treatment for that whole peeing the pants thing.

Do you think we could clone Dick … we need him in our time zone!! GT, love the ’select-a-theme’ thing …. it’s like a ‘mood blog’ … could you do something really Goth and dark maybe … for those CBS Morning Show moments

Artery…that sounds SO much like something Dubya would say.

Chance, they are so clever.I wonder what the name is for these word tricks
Lori, if anyone could come up with that, Dick could.
Tonardo, mood blog. I like that
BeckEye, v. Dubya - I can also hear him talking about Iraqi insurgents in terms of wanting to Barium.
