Subject: Oxymorons (Was: American English)




Now there's an oxymoron right down there with "military intelligence"
and "honest politician".


OK, its not Friday yet, but we are winding down to the holidays.

Does anyobdy else have a favorite oxymoron? I rather like "military
music"
to go with "military intelligence". "Devout atheist" also springs to
mind.
Mind you, I sometimes suspect that my company name is also an
oxymoron...
