Roundabout way


 

Cliché clicks: Put your money where your mouth is. Bet your bottom dollar. Laugh all the way to the bank. Gold rush. Penny Pincher. Up the Ante. ClicheSite is a glossary of English-language clichés organized by definition. They'll spice up your writing and conversation with the possible side effect of leading you to sound like a total dork if you use them wrong. So if you need a hackneyed saying, a mindless platitude or shopworn turn-of-phrase, click yourself at www.clichesite.com.

Roundtine: The Conference Bike is a big red tricycle that just happens to seat seven - in a circle, facing each other - with one big handlebar in the middle. So if you want to go anywhere, it takes teamwork, perseverance and a lot of moving your head from side to side so as not to block the view. Okay, only one person steers, but it has good brakes and it's handcrafted in Germany for a price of over $10,000. See it in action www.conferencebike.com.
