I'm going to work "eschew obfuscation" into all of my conversations today. (My conversations will, most likely, be about dirty socks and homework.)

Oh, those two are definitely worth eschewing AND obfuscating. ;-)

That's hilarious, Jennifer! I'm going to eschew ALL reviews. (yeah, right...)

Barbara- Only the ones that eschew you up and spit you out. (Oh my... how easily I'm amused!)
