Portmeanteau-yeah!

After several similar conversations with Tom, I have decided to start keeping track of portmanteaus that I personally discovered. (Portmanteau fans believe that all portmanteaus already exist in nature.) The list is pretty small now, while I try to remember some of my back catalogue...

    The latter is probably just a wiki about Natalie Portman.

    Note that it is not on my list, hence no claim of discovery!

    I went to a restaurant last night that had a menu section titled "Porkfolio." Does that count?
