Swallow

The other day, I watched a swallow recurrently dip in flight and my subsequent train of thought went like this:

Weird that the word swallow is a bird and also a bodily function. And then what about wallow? What in god's tarnation do all those have to do with each other?

Swallows dip down in flight.

When you swallow, you push down your food.

When you wallow, you lie down into a depression in the ground or in the water, or fall into indulgence.

Aha! 

I killed someone and I need an avocatto.

No, not the tastiest food in the whole wide world, but a lawyer!

Avocatto in Italian=attorney.
