Simply a reference book to check words which rhyme with one another. e.g. half bakery could rhyme with slim shady tee hee

       Except halfbakery and shady tee hee do not mean the same thing...you want a rhyming dictionary, and I am sure they are out there....probably on-line.

       Personally i find the idea of a rhyming dinosaur preposterous

       There was a young writer called johnny,
Who's rhymes weren't oft on the money, (like that one)
He'd rhyme Anchisaurus,
With a blonde who was Taurus,
And not be particularly funny.
and a lifeless limerick as well....
  

       Did you know that there are five words in the english language which have no one word rhyme?
I'll start you off with one : orange

       There's a lot more than five words, goff.

       arrange? (near rhyme)   

       but find a rhyme for month (besides "once" and it's exact rhymes...)

       UnaBubba:   

       Roses are red
Violets are purple
When Dawn and I trap-shot
I liked to have her 'pull'.

       globaltourniquet:   

       In the month of September I went out the tenth,
having gone out the ninth on the previous month.
For if in one month I go out on the nth
in the next month I'll go out on the n-plus-one'th.

       goff: the common list of words without 'good' rhymes includes purple (see above), orange (door hinge), silver (pilfer), and month (see above). The only common single-syllable word I've not seen on such lists is flange, but there are many polysyllabic words without rhymes.   

       On a more interesting note: figure out what's special about the following list of words: fly, draw, grow, slay [hint: look at past-tense forms]. Can you come up with a list of ten or more words with the same property?

       I was looking for rhymes for purples and silvers
Some poems are healthy but this is an ill verse
globaltourniquet, Apr 25 2001
  

       I gave this rhyme task to my peotry pupil
but he was dyslexic and rhymed words to pruple
globaltourniquet, Apr 25 2001
  

       (the really amusing part is, I didn't even mean to write "peotry"...)
globaltourniquet, Apr 25 2001
  

       Even when, till the playoffs, there remains but a month
The coach with the lisp always gives up and punts.
globaltourniquet, Apr 25 2001
  

       I know of a word that doesn't rhyme with anything.   

       aequeosalinocalcalinoceraceoaluminosocupreovitriolic
