This reminds me of my past fun with spoonerisms, which are created by
taking a multi-word expression and exchanging parts (usually beginnings) of
words.  Things like "griscuits and bavy" for "biscuits and gravy," etc.
Thus, for instance, some of us may one day encounter a tactile stubway trip,
a tilefinding path, or a guide dog who much prefers a still wairstay to an
escalator.  Then there are those of us who must continually decide when to
speak out against and when to use free blatter for the mind ...
