I have been interested in the thread about visual puns. It occurred to
me that oxymorons would also be good source of ideas---those seemingly
incongruous words that are used together like 'jumbo shrimp,' 'working
vacation,' and 'pretty ugly.'
I located the following web sites that have gobs of oxymorons in case
someone like me was still intrigued by this idea.
