Ha ha, bisect, gambit and windlass! You're very clever.
Oh those are funny. For a couple of them it took me a second to get it. Clever.
These are pure genius!
Excellent - you've even got a triple-play with Scandinavian!
I was trying to guess some of them before I read your definitions, and rampant was the only easy one - except I was picturing pants on male sheep instead of a way to breathe :)
I'm saving these along with the previous lists for when I need a break from conventional thinking. Great mental exercise and entertainment!
Standing Ovation!

I guess "rampant" could also be a small insect that climbed inclined pathways -- some words can have more than one meaning.
