Jane --
I can only think of two more off the top of my head, but I suspect the list
will provide lots more (and this is fun!):
Torpor / torpid
Pallor / pallid
The attempt to think of more has now left me with the awful forms "gelor"
and "insipor"; analogy is not always a good thing...

On a lighter note, (for an SAT vocab exercise) I wonder if I might solicit
words that fit the pattern of noun ending in -or and adjective in -id.
For instance:
splendor/splendid
candor/candid
rancor/rancid
stupor/stupid
Thanks!
