Collective Nouns

I was reading in the generic newspaper the other day that the Uxbridge English Dictionary has updated its list of collective nouns. Here are some of the new ones:

A jereboam of fat look-alikes
A ring of paediatricians
A collision of egos
An incomprehensible shouting of tramps
A Michael of portaloos
A council of chieves
A booty of bottoms
A tray of rhinos
A beard of bees
A hill of fools
A liking of potatoes
