Welcome to my Wednesday think-about-something-other-than-challenge-results post! Apparently, I'm two days early for challenge results (I don't have a horse in this race). Oops! I loved Mad Libs when I was a child and love them even more as an adult. I make my own now, from great works of literature in the public domain (can't afford to face a lawsuit from the Steinbeck family).

In the true spirit of Mad Libs, I'm not revealing anything except the parts of speech list for you to complete--knowing the passage interferes with the integrity of the exercise. The goal (for me) is to come up with the best possible words I can, to put words I don't get to use very often to use. Some people like to thematically connect their words; others prefer that best mathematical pattern: random.

Okay, wow me with your word choices, and let's start voting on best results in my results posts. If enough people start participating, I may be able to start adding a tip to the creator whose results get the most votes. You know, a popularity contest.

Alrighty then. Rules: post your list in the comments. That's it. No link sharing or pasting required. Oh, one more thing: have fun!
