Etymologically-related words, most surprisingly so (strange bedfellows), are used to construct amusing and/or amazing pairs, phrases and whole sentences, mostly accompanied by silly or satirical comments, tall tales with recurring characters, poems, fake news and fake ads for Dr. Duck's Dealy Deli. An appendix gives many other pairs of surprisingly related synonyms, antonyms, etc., balanced by the converse - pairs one might expect to be related but are not.

He is the author of an award-winning children's (and all ages!) book, Silly Animal Rhymes and Stories A to Z, and a big book of puns and other humorous word play, How to Double the Meaning of Life.
