Word Play

In my inbox this week was a forward from a friend. It was entitled "Word Play". I am posting some of the better ones here in the hopes that some of you will pick up and run with this.

"Those who jump off a bridge in Paris are in Seine.
Practice safe eating--always use condiments.
Shotgun wedding: A case of wife or death.
A hangover is the wrath of grapes.
A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two tired.
A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion.
He had a photographic memory, but it never developed.
Those who get too big for their britches will be exposed in the end." And finally,
"Santa's helpers are subordinate clauses."

I'm trying to come up with some contributions, but the only phrase that will come to mind is a classic line from Garth Marenghi's Darkplace:

She was like a candle in the wind - unreliable.

"Time flies like an arrow."

You can't time flies. They go too quickly.
