several things actually.... it depends on the context. You have to be very careful!
lots of lovin
loins on a lobster
location of the locamotive
logarithm or log (since they are the same thing you know, though it isn't used in that context frequently here....sorry)lecture over lunch
laxative often leaky
liaison often lethal
lager obliges laggardness
laugh out loudTake your pick, just be careful that you don't use it at the wrong time to mean the wrong thing! You wouldn't want to accuse anyone of being a drunkard, now would you?

hmmm . . .
I had heard it was "laugh out loud" before, but frequently I see it in places where that doesn't make sense . . . unless my sense of humor is way off from everyone else's (not too much of a stretch, that).
lots of lovin' (with an "n apostrophe" rather than an "ng", no less) implies something rather different than "lots of love"
so i think i'll pick the loins of lobster.
thanks!

Are you sure you don't want to stick with lots of lovin'? That'd be my choice? In my house there's no such thing as "loving", there's only "lovin'".... But, I suppose the choice is up to you.....Although I'd have to assume the loins of a lobster would be rather small.......To each his (or her) own...
