If you want to really be professional, get a Roget's Thesaurus. It's not alphabetical, they list the words via section - like they are into five 'Classes': Abstract Relations, Space, Matter, Intellect: the exercise of the mind, Volition: the exercise of the will, and Emotion, religion and morality.

Extra points if you don't have to go to the back to find a word =P

the 'saurus' part in the name clearly replicates many names of dinosaurs - stegasuarus, brontesauraus...whatveer saurus rex
