HAL has some kind of plan for world domination that depends on making up a very high caliber Tom Swifty. She lately urged people to help her by coming up with one. You know, like "'Pass me the shellfish,' said Tom crabbily." "'Can I go looking for the grail again?' Tom requested."
OK, so here is AM's, it's the best one by far, ever:
"Take that undergarment that's at the moment being worn by that small, furry dog that's traditionally used to herd sheep, and steam clean the undergarment," Tom said broccoli-ly.
(Let's see that pun one more time. It is: "bra-collie-ly"/"broccoli-ly")
Way to go, AM.

I just don't get it.
How about:
"I know I'm not wearing any pants," Paul said friggidly.
I don't get the one about the pants.
CBAM, you steam broccoli to cook it.
Wait, this isn't about a vagina?
...he's cold because he's not wearing pants...
Oh! Brilliant.
I cannot claim sole credit for this tom swifty. It was a collaboration, as I remember. I'm pretty sure the part about the collie was YSA's.
