5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.
6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert..
7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to

8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.
9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.

18) After a number of injections my jaw got number.
19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine
in
pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in
France(Surprise!). Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't
sweet, are meat.
Quicksand works slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is
neither
from Guinea or is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers
don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?
If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One
goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can
make amends but not one amend. If you have a bunch of odds and ends and
get
rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? Is it an odd, or an end?
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats
vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? In what language do people
recite
at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship?
Have
noses that run and feet that smell?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a
wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a
language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you
fill
in a form by filling it out, and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the
creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That
is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are
out, they are invisible.
P.S. - Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"?
P.P.S. If the plural of "mouse" is "mice," why isn't the plural of
"house" "hice?"
