Buried within a much larger discussion of the reconfiguration of President Bush’s second-term economic program, comes this ominous little nugget of semantics regarding future cabinet shake-ups, from “Bush to Change Economic Team”, the Washington Post, November 29, 2004:

Tuesday’s Question:

Clothing
Oil
Restaurants
Computers
I’m going with the military services industry, oops, wasn’t one of the choices.
