Reminds me of some of my favorite oxymorons:
- Civil war
- Civil litigation (Pah-leease!)
- Jumbo Shrimp
- Good Grief
- Fresh Frozen
- Act naturally
- Military intelligence
- tight slacks
- pretty ugly
- same difference

And, I could add "gourmet Chinese" to the list, but alas, it's not an
oxymoron....The Boy owns one.

I'm bored this morning, folks, and the coffee's kicking in!
