I just heard Beethoven's "Creatures of Prometheus" on the radio, which inspired this topic, reminding me of one of my favorites: PDQ Bach's "Preachers of Crometheus."
And then there is "Weed it and reap," from an organic gardening catelog.

Not sure that this is an actual Spoonerism, but those crispy fried thingies (made by Jay's, Lay's and others) are, in our house, call tatopachips.

I was rushing around last weekend before leaning my Mom's to come home when I heard myself say that I would "pickley quack before dinner."

A lack of pies.
Hey, I found a fun-looking word site, but it has ads on it. Am I allowed to post it? If not, people can PM for the link if they want it.

I was wondering if, technically, a spoonerism could be deliberate. I didn't find an answer, but I did find this:
"Let me sew you to your sheet."

So did I. Same source?
PS Jackie, I have no problem with commercial sites. You're the moderator, as it were! :-)

That's not a spoonersim, Inselpeter. That's a metaphor.
Not a good metaphor. But a metaphor nonetheless.
