The Yellow Pages Word Game

When you flip through the Yellow Pages looking for a company or service, you'll see the word headings at the top of each page. Often these can be funny word combinations.

These are actual word combinations from the SBC SMART Yellow Pages in the December 2004 Whittier, California phone directory.

Automotive-Awnings - These are just what you need for that giant SUV you bought last year. Avoid the sun!

Baby-Bags - Why use a carriage or baby-backpack when these cheap bags will do?

Bankruptcy-Banquet - Celebrate that financial setback in style! Have that banquet in spite of having little cash.

Bee-Bicycles - Who would have thought those little buzzers could ride bicycles? Bees will be boys!

Candy-Carpet - Now this sounds like a product that isn't going to make it.

Chiropractric-Churches - Get that bad back in shape and fill your spiritual needs, both in one place.

Legal-Lighting - Lawyers and judges shop here for their illumination needs.

Liquor-Loans - We thought we'd heard of all kinds of loans, but this is a new one that's SO wrong!

Masonry-Mattresses - If "extra firm" is not good enough for you, one of these should make you sleep like a baby.
