Leonard Cohen rhymed "orange" with "door hinge"
 
Dreamt rhymes with unkempt.

Month rhymes pretty closely with hunt, bunt, front... coelacanth?

Heh. It's funny how being mean to crackpots can be seen as a virtue, in the right context. Today I'd probably be given infraction points for making many of my old posts from back then! :smile: Ah well, to make an omelette you've got to break a few eggs.

Oh, and it's a green cape with tights now. :-p

Tights? Uh oh, I'd better hit the gym after all that holiday eating! :redface:
 
Strange... it works for me
