Yeay, yeah, rum-soaked, wine-dipped, aged-in-the-wood and cadium-plated.

s/sterling/splendid/ig;  m'kay?

One of my former neigbors, a jeweler and silversmith, built a cute
little house near the paved road and put up a sign: "Sterling Silver".

Strangers who came to the door would greet him, "Good afternoon!
Mr. Silver?" Not bad, I guess, because his surname was Startup.  You
can take it from there.

Oh, well, Silver is a common name around here.  And Rocky Irons was
(and Reuben Irons is) a blacksmith a couple of hundred miles from
me.

Are we having fun yet?
