I defy ANYONE to actually come up with a letigimate rhyme for the word ORANGE. I have never found one. Give me a rhyme for orange and get 10 points. (Must of course be a real word.) Good luck to all who even try it.

My voice and diction teacher said that for a speach for our midterm due in 3 weeks can contain "bad" words, but he specifically said that he did not want to hear the "CU" word. He said that if anyone said it, then the person would flunk the semester automatically.
