The latest homographic, homophonic antonym I've encountered:
cached: (1) to use up. (2) to store up.

``The Peanut Butter Crunch is cached''
``Is enough of that South Park episode cached so we can start watching it yet?''

A culinary history lessonAC: "It is funny how cultures get attached to the idea of certain foodstuffs always having been around

I believe sense 1 is spelled "cashed". Also, "cleave" -- to stick to; to cut apart!

homophonic antonyms: not as sexy :-(

I always spell sense 1 "cached" in my mind because it is awesomer that way, but an argument about this was settled in favor of "cashed" by an intoxicated UrbanDictionary venture :(.

I was right about to make this point.

I also forgot Guy Fawkes day. I pretended to have remembered by reciting the little verse at 1AM today, but I don't think Andre was fooled.

Somehow, I was *way* more conscious of Guy Fawkes day today -- there were two articles about it in the NYT (one about the decline of bonfires due to safety concerns in England, the other about how Ron Paul used it as a fundraising opportunity), and also Steven talked a lot about it over the weekend.

This entire post cracked me up. My one nit to pick is that the Chinese have really sucky pastries.

"a lot" might be an exaggeration. I believe Jon brought it up, and then I repeated the rhyme once.

I remembered remembered it! But only because I was reading the Guardian, and even then, I was puzzled for a while when they kept mentioning it until I thought really hard.
