By George! So I did. As clear a malapropism as I could have
committed. Nope - not a homophonic malapropism in fact - but rather
a swapping of homologous letters in coupled words - now I'm sure
there's a term for that.

Help me out Hugh - you're comfortable with homophones and homologs
I know :-)

What's to be comfortable with? I have one type of telephone on my
desk and one type of log in my fireplace. Beyond that I don't know
much. Wait, that's "monophone" and "monolog" isn't it?
