  The first part seems interesting. The whole thing is way too long to be read by a tired soul in a single read.

    It IS a bit long. To me the "Lexical blends" are an example of competing motor programs. Yes it does given a window into cognition, but it is a window into the parallel nature of processing in the brain and not into generalization.
