There you go!! a lot of very confusing phrases, those double ones are particulary good thanks for posting them Max.
off the top of my head I can't think of any more, (but there are some)

How about a bed with quicksand to sleep in 

Great for people who don't want to go to work

  Aw UC... work can't be all that bad.  You only get to work because you are able to..it's a blessing for those who possess physically and mentally accommodating circumstances.

Here's a few thought provoking statements...and my comments
Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present. <blank>

A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum..Mm? a musical fish story maybe?

When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes...Mm? and no mention of the Dove Bar?

I did not object to the object....Mm? So is Neglect to object really an neglected object?

The insurance was invalid for the invalid. Mm? My PC sez..Invalid Operation..and nothing about insurance.  So am I an uninsured invalid?

There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row. Mm? Ok..everyone..stop it!!..Now to the beat of the drum...1, 2, 3...Row, row row your boat..gently..etc

They were too close to the door to close it Mm? Sounds like one of those passionate scenes from Desperate Housewives..(though I can't be sure..I've never watched it)..But?? who knows?

The buck does funny things when the does are present. Mm? Well so does does, or do does.ack!! does do..well you get the idea

A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.  Mm? I've always wondered why new clothes always smelled awful..now ya know

To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.  Mm? So the farmer's wife..she saw sow sow sea shells...well that would be a new twist on an old tongue twister..

Ahh!! I'll quit while I'm ahead..or I'll have a dizzy head like UC..

Thanks for indulging me..<chuckle>

And great for people who don't want to get up either

With our language Sandra there's an unendless supply..we just haven't discovered them yet.

Great Max !!

Although my head is dizzy I managed to get the funny point 

The English language is full of trapholes too, I've learned the hard way 
I remember a few times when I had to say I'm sorry  when I fell into
some of those traps 

Anyway -- nobody got harmed

   Glad you made it through alright UC.  I'll give everyone a break before I dive into another run on the "language" thing.   

I need time to recoup too.. watched too much sports lately
