A is for Aaron's rod

Aaron's rod
(Aar"on's rod`) (A'a'r'on's ro'i'd`) [See Exodus vii. 9 and Numbers xvii. 8 - leave a message if no one answers]

1. (Arch.) A rod with one serpent twined around it, thus differing from the caduceus of Mercury, which has two. (Lucky sod)

2. (Bot.) A plant with a tall flowering stem; esp. the great mullein, or hag-taper, and the golden-rod.

3. (Frat.) Heh, heh, heh. Rod, get it?

Example:
"Aaron's Rod tastes great in milk!"
(Aaron's little cousin Zack -2002)
