CGI: "Jumbo" means big. "Shrimp" means small. Therefore it's an oxymoron. :-)

"War on terror" never fails to make me laugh.

While not a true Oxymoron in it's deepest sense, conventional warfare against terrorism is like throwing naplalm on a fire to try and put it out.

I am like Yin & Yang, my lighter side is balanced by my darkerside, embrace both & you get the whole me, play with one & you will meet the other... www.ganjataz.com ~ www.ganjataz.co.uk And lastly, View an image, vote on it, then bloody comment on it. How else are we artists to know what you like or don't if you do not tell us?

Oxymoron = expression with contradictory words: a phrase in which two words of contradictory meaning are used together for special effect, e.g. 'wise fool' or 'legal murder'

I have the patriot missile system already mounted on the house roof to take out Santa (or as George Dubya would put it "we arent taking out Santa, we are just liberating the gifts"). Just think of it as a festive fly by shooting. Bah Humbug.
