01) darkness visible (v. "Paradise Lost")
02) iron wood (used instead of nails by Robinson Crusoe)
03) old news (when you haven't seen the News in a while)
04) organized chaos (i.e., fractals)
05) Peacekeeper missile (term from Romantic Realism)
06) silent knock
07) white gold
Pleonasm: sort of the opposite of an oxymoron, the adj or adv agrees with the noun. eg. Wet Water (what else could water be?)
Tautology: a pleonasm whose terms are joined by a copula. eg. At the center is the middle.
Bull: the linguistic name for such linguistic pearls of logic, enabling one to label examples of:
- self-contradiction (To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant).
- self reference (Brain: an apparatus with which we think that we think).
- the obvious (Who died? I'm not sure, but I think it's the one in the hearse).
- "read the sentence twice and be amazed that it was written" (The sudden rise in temperature was responsible for the intolerable heat) (Nobody goes to that restaurant anymore, it's too crowded)

I just read a quote today that I loved:
"All of you laugh at me because I am different, I laugh at all of you because you are all the same!"
We are all unique, just some of us more than others...LOL
