I never managed to get through Peace and War, but I did finish Punishment and Crime.
Any one up for a bit of music? Our choir director was always putting altos and ladies into different sections.
The Prof’s literary exploits thereby avoiding being quartered, drawn & hanged.
I’ll keep trying to come up with new ones that haven’t been posted yet for as long as I can, the creek don’t rise and God willing.
I have to drive my own car, as my company failed to provide me one via favour and grace.
(Correct me if I’m wrong here, isn’t “grace and favour” the British equivalent of like “fringe benefits”? As in, a bigshot employee is allowed the use of a company car because “grace and favour”?)
Do you have one with pinion and rack steering?
I know less and little about that type of thing.
Just something to keep you within the rail and post fencing.
Anyone here a fan of Ringo, George, John, and Paul?
I much prefer themover Oates & Hall.
While I like most of the Beatles tracks, the famous 80s duo on the other hand were more miss and hit.
In other words I don’t like their entire catalog stock, barrel, and lock.
I prefer Oates & Garfunkel.
When I want a laugh, I like to listen to Chong & Cheech.
Are we just going to start listing every Harry, Dick and Tom?
Let us review. These are the frozen binomials used to date.

Another or one way we were bound to repeat a few.
I think we’ve just about used them all, less or more.
Maybe, but we shouldn’t rest until we’ve posted every and each one.
I’m glad you posted the list. It will make it easier for all of us to choose and pick our next entry.
