I haven't taught metonymy in part because I screw it up. I use synedoche generically for both (and Laurence Perrine from Sound and Sense tells me that's okay!)
Alliteration could work. But I think I need a meaning distractor and not a sound one.

ita, I was watching Tennis, then I switched to Emma - now I'm back on Tennis and trying to decide whether I should record the Federer/Hewitt match that is going to be on sometime after 2 am.
By this I mean, that I missed the end of Venus' match.

This morning I tore half my eyelashes out when I was curling them and was startled by the sound of a limb cracking and falling outside (not on our property, but the neighbors).
IOW, ouch.
Also, my computer has a virus and the computer person keeps saying "I've never seen that before."
IOW, sigh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
