Radio Language that Made Me Wonder, 2


  • Heard in a radio interview:

                 "You hit it on the nutshell, Jackie. . . "


         
                                Why use one cliché?  Combine two.




  • Heard on a radio commercial:

                    With sentimental music behind her, a woman delivers
               a Father's Day message to her Dad (courtesy of a local bank):

                       "You told me I should think for myself.  So I often think,
                        'What would Dad say?'"



              
                                Hmm?!
