I think I hurt myself

Okay, this obviously identifies me as a newbie, but in casting about 
for anything to do other than the work on my desk, I found and read 
the list of Tom Swifties. I think I hurt myself laughing. 

Humor my ignorance - where did the name come from?(she asked 
originally.) How was the list compiled? It's too funny. 

Thanks

Belinda
