Onion Boat
Just seen a mention of this on here Buzybee 15 June 13:26.
My first thought was that it was a malaprop
(I like malaprops), as I've heard the similar 'banana boat' phrase many times.
Anyroad, I had a little google (as is my wont ) and found this interesting article.
So it wasn't a malaprop, after all.
In't google great.

A few "Bushisms for you.

Onions can be a bit of a turn off, though.

Seems that rubbing them on your head (onions) works wonders.

Buzybee, any comment about the banana boat could be seen as going off topic.
So maybe it's wise not to.
