Malapropagation 2012 -- Revenge of the Schtick

Yes, he was great in that movie: *How The **Groucho *Stole Christmas.

I think you’re referring to how the main character used a grinch to pull that sled full of toys up the side of the mountain.

I wonder if Whoville had any taverns where you could order a beer and have a comely serving winch bring the liquid refreshment to your table.

A comely serving winch has certainly often thrown a monkey-**wench **into my plans.

I guess if that table had a wobbly leg or something, you could use that wench to tighten the bolt.

I’m not much of a handyman, fixing tables and such. I just like to sit in my backyard and watch the birds fly by - I’m always happy to see a sparrow, a cardinal or a wrench.

Wren shall we three meet again, in thunder, lightning or in rain?

Away out here they got a name for rain and when and fire. The rain is Tess, the fire Joe, and they call the when Maria.

I never heard of calling common, everyday meteorological phenomena by individual names. Now, please excuse me, while I go watch a rerun of Mork and Windy.

Are you going to listen to Barry Manilow’s Mindy as well?

When did Manilow write a song about the** mandy** bear, those incredibly cute, bamboo-eating Chinese animals that have trouble reproducing in captivity?

I think when zoos feature incredibly cute animals to bring in more visitors, they just panda to the lowest common denominator among the foolish public.

And after watching the cute animals one can sit and pander what the meaning of it all is.

I like to sit by the **ponder **while I’m doing that - with just the occasional bubble breaking the surface, and a dragonfly buzzing by now and then.

No, Mr. Pond, I expect you to die.

Oh yes, Mr. Bond definitely died in the shootout with the police at the end of Reservoir Dogs.

Some might consider Reservoir Dogs overly violent and tasteless, but unlike when that adjective is applied to food, the movie certainly wasn’t blonde.

Sometimes losing your sense of taste is the result of taking medicine to control the thyroid bland.

Did Gland, the Good Witch of the North, have thyroid issues?

Wait, are you talking about the real estate play Glenda Glen Ross?
