The Story...
      Today is a day named for the Reverend William Spooner (born in London)
    whose frequent slips of the tongue led to coinage of the term that became
    to be spoonerisms.  His most famous slips; "Blushing crow" (for crushing
    blow), "Tons of soil" (for sons of toil), and "Half warmed fish" (for
    half-formed wish).
