Post by: magus on September 05, 2013, 09:27:09 AM
THEME:   meals with new meanings
   
GOOD ONES:     
Group for jive fools?   TURKEY-CLUB   
Quick swim in la mar?   FRENCH-DIP   
GI unlikely to pass inspection   SLOPPY-JOE ["G.I. Joe"]   
Reneged political funding   PULLED-PORK [a Southern dish mostly]

BTW:   
Parenthesis, e.g.   ARC [note singular spelling]   

Hit the big leagues   GO-PRO [maybe, but there are many professional (paid players) leagues which are "minor" --- thus a minor-leaguer who hits the bigs does not GO PRO; he already is]
