When I was on the Master Gardener hotline, I received a call from a woman 
asking what side of her house she should put her garden on.  Questioning 
revealed she wanted to grow veggies, didn't know which side was sunniest 
because she left before dawn and arrived at home after dark.  I told her to 
put her garden on the south side, and she'd better have some automatic 
watering system in place.

A friend, known for her malapropisms, attended a housewarming for other 
friends, saw a large gift coleus, and gushed, "Oh, what a beautiful 
clitoris!"  Margaret Lauterbach
