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.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

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.
