"Treason Toy?" What's a "Treason Toy??"

It's a Bit Like "Soviet Jewelry" *

I'm noodling with a (darker) blog post tentatively titled "Wall Street's Financial Treason," so my ears perked up when I thought I heard someone say "treason toy" at this morning's office meeting.

They did, kind of: they were making an announcement about a holiday fundraiser called "Trees 'N Toys."

*Old-time Saturday Night Live fans will recognize this as the title of an Emily Litella (Gilda Radner) bit whereby she confuses "Soviet Jewry" and "Soviet jewelry."
