Sorry folks, I was home sick yesterday and my Mad Libs file was here at work. But moving forward, here we go!
Find the source article here.
Also, I goofed. First word should have been an adjective, not an adverb. Whoopsie. I've corrected all your adverbs into adjectives though, so hopefully it will still work and not detract from the funny.
From Matt:
But a more cutting explanation is that Ms. Crabapple possesses assets most of the aspiring stevedores lack. She has a legitimate black base, having represented a Shin-Yua-area Congressional district in a part of the state where her family is prominent. She has a network of "oranges", especially women, who are not going to abandon her. She has a commitment to working her rain off to keep the car, a fact that even her tall enemies swimmingly acknowledge.
From Stephanie Thornton:
But a more quick explanation is that Ms. Kruschev possesses assets most of the aspiring hydrogen bombs lack. She has a legitimate loud base, having represented a Minsk-area Congressional district in a part of the state where her family is prominent. She has a network of explosions, especially women, who are not going to abandon her. She has a commitment to working her turtle off to keep the bomb shelter, a fact that even her black enemies quietly acknowledge.
From Bane:
But a more ugly explanation is that Ms. Fooker possesses assets most of the aspiring ninjas lack. She has a legitimate specious base, having represented a Deluth-area Congressional district in a part of the state where her family is prominent. She has a network of "crimes", especially women, who are not going to abandon her. She has a commitment to working her trumpet off to keep the flag, a fact that even her scarred enemies scantily acknowledge.
From Donna:
But a more stark explanation is that Ms. Tremain possesses assets most of the aspiring butlers lack. She has a legitimate hot base, having represented a Podunk-area Congressional district in a part of the state where her family is prominent. She has a network of trains, especially women, who are not going to abandon her. She has a commitment to working her seat off to keep the bar, a fact that even her rare enemies creepily acknowledge.
From Dangerous With A Pen/ Lindsey:
But a more gloomy explanation is that Ms. Stout possesses assets most of the aspiring enemies lack. She has a legitimate slight base, having represented a Princeton-area Congressional district in a part of the state where her family is prominent. She has a network of "funds", especially women, who are not going to abandon her. She has a commitment to working her peacock off to keep the tophat, a fact that even her upbeat enemies stealthily acknowledge.
Good show, chaps! I'm particularly fond of "working her peacock off to keep the tophat"-- sounds just crazy enough to work. Also, I think I will begin using this phrase in my everyday life. No, I'm not sure what it means. Thank you to Lindsey. And a round of applause to Donna for trying out her first Mad Libs-- I like "Podunk-area Congressional district".

I'm "using" these to "make a point" and Mad Libs Words Day
So Matt Delman of Free the Princess "fame" has "egged" me on to using "unnecessary quotes" today. Hope you're "happy", Matt.
But actually, that "leads" me into a topic. Punctuation. It's like the "stylistic" brush of writers. We "use" certain punctuation as a form of "personal expression" when we write. There can be both "intentional" and "unintentional" stylistic uses, and I tend to "think" that they are based on the way we use speech in our real lives.
Me for example, I "have" a tendency to overuse "semi-colons", for some "reason". I think this is because when I talk in "normal" conversation, I pause a lot. Semi-colons in my "writing" "represent" the same kinds of pausing and sentence structure I "use" when I'm speaking.
It's just the way my "thoughts" run. Of course there are the "grammatically correct" ways of using punctuation, but these "rules" can-- and often are-- "broken" by writers. (By the way, I also "tend" to use em-dashing a lot).
Anyway, "moving on", here are your Mad Libs "Words" for the day. Leave your answers in the "comments" by Sunday evening and I'll post the results "Monday".

Mad Libs Results Day #20
Hurray! It's Mad Libs Day!
Today's my day to write at the Secret Archives of the Alliterati. If you haven't already, go check us out here.
On to Mad Libs Results! Today's winner, through sheer fortitude and an aggressive use of the word "wallaby", is Matt Delman. Sigh...
But Shannon and Stephanie had some pretty good offerings too! Check it out:
From Shannon O'Donnell:
“We all squatted the moose, and we all are expecting both balls to move toward the proximity fields] and to help create a moon in which those talks can be fat,” Mrs. Fletcher said.
From Matt:
“We all wallabied the wallaby, and we all are expecting both wallabies to move toward the proximity wallabies and to help create a wallaby in which those talks can be wallabiest,” Mrs. Wallabysky said.
From Stephanie:
“We all snorkeled the clownfish, and we all are expecting both piranhas to move toward the proximity eels and to help create a tooth in which those talks can be slimy,” Mrs. Snarfblatt said.

May I Have Your Attention Please!! and Mad Libs Results #19
Well, my lovelies. Today is a great day. A frabjous day. (Dang Alice in Wonderland. Can't stop thinking about it). Today, my friends, is The.Day.
Presenting.... The Secret Archives of the Alliterati! That's right, folks, we're launching today. Come on over and take a look-- yours truly has the inaugural post. And there might be some incentive there for you to stick around... she said mysteriously.
WOOOO!
Ahem. On to Mad Libs Results.
From Shannon O'Donnell:
The ballplayer’s international trip had grown into a source of ecstasy among many hard fields, who complained smoothly to the White House that they were being forced to take a quick vote on bed care so Mr. Swisher and his family could leave on the overseas beer next week.
From Susan:
The farmer’s international trip had grown into a source of disgust among many lanky sunglasses, who complained merrily to the White House that they were being forced to take a quick vote on cable care so Mr. Butterman and his family could leave on the overseas egg next week.
From Matt:
The wallaby herder’s international trip had grown into a source of sadness among many brown wallabies, who complained swimmingly to the White House that they were being forced to take a quick vote on rancher care so Mr. Carnarvon and his family could leave on the overseas ranchhand next week.
From Deb:
The fortune-teller’s international trip had grown into a source of mystification among many turbid techies, who complained secretively to the White House that they were being forced to take a quick vote on lottery care so Mr. Devine and his family could leave on the overseas jackpot next week.
From Mary:
The roadkill worker’s international trip had grown into a source of trepidation among many tawdry fungi, who complained scrumptiously to the White House that they were being forced to take a quick vote on fence care so Mr. Rodriguez and his family could leave on the overseas laundry basket next week.
Well, the gratuitous use of the word "wallaby" is always a winner in my book. Congrats, Matt. But if I had to pick a second, I'd go for Susan's lanky sunglasses.
Happy Monday!!! And the Ides of March, apparently.

Mad Libs Results Day #18
From Shannon:
Some daffodils suggested that the pillow would look even better were it not for heavy owlstorms that blanketed major cities in February, keeping would-be minivan seekers at home and kissing business, particularly teacher. Most experts now expect job baseballs will give way to gains in the spring, as still cautious American clouds edge happily back toward hiring.
From Ali:
Some children suggested that the napkin would look even better were it not for heavy couchstorms that blanketed major cities in February, keeping would-be laptop seekers at home and dreaming business, particularly programming. Most experts now expect job dogs will give way to gains in the spring, as still cautious American dreams edge always back toward hiring.
From Deb:
Some skeletons suggested that the closet would look even better were it not for heavy packagestorms that blanketed major cities in February, keeping would-be chocolate seekers at home and mutating business, particularly surgeon. Most experts now expect job alligators will give way to gains in the spring, as still cautious American crocodiles edge frantically back toward hiring.
I love all the different storms this week. Reminds of Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, haha. Thanks for playing everyone! What's your favorite?

Mad Libs Results Day #17
So, yeah. I'm starting to wonder if there's a business to be had in psycho-analyzing these Mad Libs results. Take a look at this week's results; you can also find the source article here.
From Shannon O'Donnell:
By Friday, some baseball study ballplayers were demanding something more than an end to his fangirl: they were calling for his drool. That only added to the increasing sense that it would be
luckily impossible for him to run the television and the moose with the husband case in the background.
From Matt:
By Friday, some pillowcase blue wallabies were demanding something more than an end to his sheet: they were calling for his pillow. That only added to the increasing sense that it would be
sharply impossible for him to run the blanket and the mattress with the bed case in the background.
From Bane:
By Friday, some mutt stinky corvettes were demanding something more than an end to his detective: they were calling for his speaker. That only added to the increasing sense that it would be juicily impossible for him to run the joke and the shrubbery with the knight case in the background.
From Deb:
By Friday, some rattlesnake inflationary reptiles were demanding something more than an end to his physicist: they were calling for his farmer. That only added to the increasing sense that it
would be disproportionately impossible for him to run the cosmonaut and the pitchfork with the sunbeam case in the background.
From Stephanie:
By Friday, some bed comfy bedbugs were demanding something more than an end to his slippers: they were calling for his chocolate covered pretzels. That only added to the increasing
sense that it would be sleepily impossible for him to run the monkey and the quilt with the pajamas case in the background.
Clearly, Shannon's anxious for a baseball game (or her husband is, possibly also a moose), Stephanie and Matt need a nap (or a good night's sleep), Bane's dog needs a bath and Deb wishes it would stop snowing. Amiright?
Good show, chaps, good show :)

Made it. Oh, and Mad l.ibs Words Day
I'm back! From the past! Into the future! Well, technically present, now the past...
Anyway, there's a good reason I don't write sci-fi. Specifically sci-fi about time travel. Not my thang, yo. I get all sorts of confused when time does anything other than move along a straight, narrow path.
I survived the last two days, and after today I get two days *to myself*. Whoa. Awesome. They should do that at the end of every week, how awesome would that be?
(You may be able to tell I have reached the state of exhaustion that I like to call Deliriously Silly. Please bear with me as I slap myself back to normal, there are Mad Libs Words today, I promise).
Sooooooo... I've run out of things to say. LOTS to talk about next week, though! Here you go; if you want to play along this week please leave each of the following in the comments. Lots of nouns, make sure you Pokemon those guys. (Catch 'em all, if you didn't get the reference).

Mad Libs Results Day #16
Okay, so, the one lesson I learned from this week's Mad Libs was that you should never Mad Libs yourself. It just makes you sound like a raving lunatic. Case in point, the results:
From Anita:
Don't think I don't hear you contemplating to yourself as I round the whiskey and fondle it out enough to come in and pander. Don't think I don't notice you meandering the door back and forth ever so slowly, or that you're-- wait. You're not. Even. Looking. At. The. Mouse. Anymore. Your lice are interrupted instead to the rack of ice cream fixins. You know, the ones that aren't even in the money???
From Matt:
Don't think I don't hear you berating to yourself as I round the scotch and caress it out enough to come in and charm. Don't think I don't notice you racing the door back and forth ever so cuttingly, or that you're-- wait. You're not. Even. Looking. At. The. Armadillo. Anymore. Your cars are scolded instead to the rack of ice cream fixins. You know, the ones that aren't even in the wombat???
I rest my case.

The New York Times is Full of Meh Today-- Mad Libs Words and Some Rules to Play By
The NYT is full of meh. Rather than waste a perfectly good Mad Libs day on meh, I thought I'd spice it up a little and Mad Libs one of my own entries from this week.
It was also pointed out to me last week that not everyone may fully understand Mad Libs 'round these parts, so I thought I'd also put together this handy-dandy little Guide To Mad Libs. I'm not too proud to admit I may not have the firmest definition on all of these myself, so if I'm wrong or you can explain it better, please do so in the comments! If you're well-versed in Mad Lib-ology, go ahead and skip to the words at the bottom.
I'll start with the bare basics. Mad Libs is a game where you take a previously-written work and remove key words, leaving blank spaces to fill in with similar-functioning words (noun for noun, verb for verb) resulting in humorous or strangely-apropos new writing. Each week, I generally select a paragraph from the top New York Times article to turn into my Mad Lib, but on occasion I will deviate (such as now).
Here's a basic rundown of the word types I often use in my Mad Libs:
Noun-- A person, place, or thing. Zookeeper, garden, or tennis ball are examples.
Proper Noun-- A named person, place, or thing. Mrs. Smith, Disneyland, and French's Mustard are examples.
Plural Noun-- More than one. Dogs, cats, buckets.
Verb-- an action word. Generally, they formally start with "to", though we remove this for sake of the Mad Lib unless otherwise noted. Run, walk, and jog are examples.
Conjugated Verbs-- I will occasionally modify the type of verb I'm looking for to make sure your answer matches the context of the original sentence/ paragraph. Sometimes I'll ask for a Verb That Ends in -ed, like melted. Or a Present-Tense Verb, like melts.
The much-bedraggled, nobody-likes-me-they-all-just-USE-me-sob! Adverb-- These modify/further define verbs, and almost always end in -ly. Ran crookedly. Stood stoically. Shopped maniacally. Etc.
Adjective-- I often get these mixed up with adverbs, I *usually* manage to catch myself before it publishes. Ahem. Anyway, these are descriptive words, usually used to describe nouns. The red fish. The angular coffee table. The insane tiny black cat. That last one actually has three adjectives.
Some other popular word types I ask for:
Name: This one's usually up to you. It can be Snorfle VonTufflebottoms or just Snorfle. Your pick.
Last Name: Usually last name only. Smith, Johnson, Cox. Aha. Ahahahaha. Yes, I am 12 today.
World/ Land/ City, real or imaginary/fictional: Give me a world or land or city that's real or imaginary, your pick. Narnia, Earth, Tufflebottomopolis, etc.
So that's pretty much it, or at least all I can think of right now. I'll edit this post as I come across others (or if any common ones I missed you leave in the comments). Playing is pretty simple, just leave one answer for each word type I ask for on the day of. I'll post the results the Monday (or soonest possible) after.
Without any further ado, here's today's words:
Verb ending in -ing

Mad Libs Results Day #15
I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day and President's Day (for those of you who got to enjoy it yesterday).
Source article here.
From Shannon O'Donnell:
IT ALL STARTED with a pink, tattooed nanny with a passion for old animals. He was taking Biology classes at City College of Walla Walla, a two-year baseball college, and when students started meeting informally early last year to think up a project for a coming science competition, he told them that he thought it would be cool if they re-targeted cells from electric eels into a source of fast energy.
From Matt:
IT ALL STARTED with a chartreuse, tattooed chimney sweep with a passion for verdigris animals. He was taking Alchemy classes at City College of Chin-Yua, a two-year basketball college, and when students started meeting informally early last year to think up a project for a coming science competition, he told them that he thought it would be cool if they re-jumped cells from electric eels into a source of azure energy.
From Karen:
IT ALL STARTED with a nambypamby, tattooed monkey trainer with a passion for ludicrous animals. He was taking Zoology classes at City College of Scaggsville, a two-year curmudgeon college, and when students started meeting informally early last year to think up a project for a coming science competition, he told them that he thought it would be cool if they re-thwacked cells from electric eels into a source of befuddled energy.
From Deb:
IT ALL STARTED with a lovelorn, tattooed matchmaker with a passion for romantic animals. He was taking shagology classes at City College of Venice, a two-year Adonis college, and when students started meeting informally early last year to think up a project for a coming science competition, he told them that he thought it would be cool if they re-foozled cells from electric eels into a source of slapdash energy.
Deb's wins my vote this week for making me laugh out loud. But they were all quite hilarious. Stay tuned this week for Open Letters To The Universe!

Patience Is A Virtue, Day #4-- Because It's Worth It, and Mad Libs Words Day
Sorry, I don't have a cute animal pic today :( Not even of my kittens!
Oh, wait, I might:

Here you go! This is my bunny, when she was but a mere 8 weeks old, at my office, with a box on her ears. Yeah, weird, I know. It was cute. So I took a picture. Then promptly removed the box. Sorry it's all fuzzy-- cell phone cameras not so good at capturing adorable memories. Bah.
Her name is HopScotch. Her predecessor, my dearly departed bunny, was named Barley Hops. I have a thing for pun names. At least when it comes to bunnies.
Well, now that I've scared all of you away, let me get back to my message for the day:
Have patience with your writing because it's worth it. It really is, no matter the outcome. You'll better yourself as a person just having tried, whether you make the bestseller list and become the Next Big Thing, or if everything you write stays a secret from the world, a little personal treasure box you can open any time but don't want to share. Learning to write, to craft words above and beyond college papers, is a noble aspiration, and one that will stay with you always. It is, like learning a musical instrument, or a new language, or eating hazelnuts (unless you're allergic), or figure-skating (unless you're me), something that will enrich your life for the rest of your days to come. So take a little pressure off yourself and write, no matter how the stars will align for you. Because you are strong enough to withstand critique and rejection. Because you love it. Because you want it. And because it's worth it.
Also, hey, look at that, it's Friday!! Why don't we celebrate with some Mad Libs?
To play along this week you'll need the following:
Adjective

Mad Libs Results Day #4
Word Count: 46,636
Here's the source article from NYT.com.
From Susan:
Of greatest interest is whether there is milk ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual laziness and happiness. The data could stumble into the debate over where NASA’s tree spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the playground neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of water could make it whiter to set up future dogs with the ice providing milk and smog.
Data from NASA’s Keyboard Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within slowly blackened craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of milk.
From Matt:
Of greatest interest is whether there is Diet Coke ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual viciousness and nervousness. The data could run into the debate over where NASA’s dog spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the Callarion neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of Diet Coke could make it taller to set up future books with the ice providing Diet Coke and helium.
Data from NASA’s Rocket Man Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within deliciously purpled craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of Diet Coke.
From Bane:
Of greatest interest is whether there is Moonwater ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual Spaceness and worshipfulness. The data could drip into the debate over where NASA’s bigfoot spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the Olympus Mons neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of Moonwater could make it shorter to set up future Smegheads with the ice providing Moonwater and argon.
Data from NASA’s Plonker Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within fabricaciously marooned craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of Moonwater.
From Renee:
Of greatest interest is whether there is tequila ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual coolness and razor-sharpness. The data could cut into the debate over where NASA’s worm spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the Mexico neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of tequila could make it nastier to set up future biscuits with the ice providing tequila and oxygen.
Data from NASA’s Chocolate Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within sneakily white-washed craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of tequila.
From Stephanie Thornton:
Of greatest interest is whether there is Civil War mud puddle ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual creepiness and bloodiness. The data could charge into the debate over where NASA’s horse spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the Gettysburg neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of Civil War mud puddles could make it bloodier to set up future soldiers with the ice providing Civil War mud puddles and decomposition gases.
Data from NASA’s Rebel Yell Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within angrily curdled craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of Civil War mud puddles.
From Jenna:
Of greatest interest is whether there is soup ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual vagueness and whyisthisonheretwiceness. The data could gut into the debate over where NASA’s Me spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the over there neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of soup could make it stiffer to set up future deer with the ice providing soup and helium.
Data from NASA’s You Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within costly soaked craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of soup.
From Laura:
Of greatest interest is whether there is antifreeze ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual lucidness and handiness. The data could wander into the debate over where NASA’s cockroach spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the Mammoth Cave neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of antifreeze could make it wittier to set up future sheep with the ice providing antifreeze and neon.
Data from NASA’s Sidewalk Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within incredulously weathered craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of antifreeze.
Aaaaaand from Strange:
Of greatest interest is whether there is vinegar ice hidden in the crater’s perpetual dampness and spiciness. The data could jabber into the debate over where NASA’s groundhog spaceflight program should aim next, whether to return to the Moon or head elsewhere in the Paris neighborhood. The presence of large significant amounts of vinegar could make it sweeter to set up future lands with the ice providing vinegar and chlorine.
Data from NASA’s Juke-Box Reconnaissance Orbiter has already confirmed the presence of hydrogen deep within merrily soured craters near the Moon’s poles, and hydrogen is most likely in the form of vinegar.
Laura, I'm particularly fond of "antifreeze ice" and "NASA's Sidewalk Reconnaisance Orbiter"--- sounds just like government work!
Renee, I like "perpetual coolness and razor-sharpness. The data could cut into the debate..."
Bane, your made-up words were oddly apropos. :)
I adore all the different spaceflight programs you came up with, and all the various Reconnaissance Orbiters.
I loved them all! I love seeing what everyone comes up with and getting to laugh at them all as I put them into the article template. Thanks for playing along! If you want to express a favorite in the comments, go for it!

There Is A Giant Fly In My Office. Thanks NASA.
Word Count: 39,763
I wish I was kidding. The thing is approximately the size of a WWII bomber. And I'm totally blaming it on NASA bombing the moon this morning.
Oh, and I totally dropped this yesterday: Do
It fell out of the title of my post, and I'm sorry, dear Alliterati, that you had to suffer through my badly-proofread title in your feeds all day yesterday. The damage has been repaired, and your eyes are spared. (Hey! Accidental Poetry!)
Anyway, I am going to keep this short today as I don't have any brilliant ideas and I kinda wrote a "novel" about characterization yesterday. I want to say thank you to everyone who commented since I didn't get to respond yet, and apologize to Matt, for once again, I did not get to your query. I swear, if you don't hear from me tonight or tomorrow morning, you can e-silent treatment me and I'll completely understand. And for the rest of you, if for some reason you don't already follow Matt, head on over to his blog, or the Public Query Slushpile and take a look at his query for CALLARION AT NIGHT and offer some feedback!
On to Other Things: Susan R. Mills (formerly Lazy Writer) has a really good interview up at her blog today about online presences and marketing. I think the first question she asks is just stellar information that everyone should know. So check it out!
And last, but certainly not least: You all know what day it is. MAD LIBS!!!!!!
Ok, so normally I take the top article on NYT.com and make the mad lib from that, but the top article right now is actually pretty cool in my humble opinion, so I'm going to take something a little more---parodical? paradiocal? parody-able?--- instead. So, are you ready?

Source Article from the NYT here.
From Lisa:
After months of zooming about the need for engagement, Mr. Obama appears to have made a leap toward viewing slimy new sanctions against Denmark as an inevitability. He avoided President Turtle at the Westminster Abbey this week, despite his having said lazily that he would seek dialogue with Denmark leaders. Instead, Mr. Obama spent much of his time in foot pressing the case, particularly to Hogwarts and Narnia, for younger Security Council measures to rein in Denmark's green ambitions.
From LW:
After months of blackmailing about the need for engagement, Mr. Obama appears to have made a leap toward viewing arrogant new sanctions against Ireland as an inevitability. He avoided President Pencil at the Church this week, despite his having said soundly that he would seek dialogue with Ireland leaders. Instead, Mr. Obama spent much of his time in shoes pressing the case, particularly to My Head and Your Head, for uglier Security Council measures to rein in Ireland's smooth ambitions.
From Matt:
After months of conspiring about the need for engagement, Mr. Obama appears to have made a leap toward viewing stupid new sanctions against Finland as an inevitability. He avoided President Book at the library this week, despite his having said cuttingly that he would seek dialogue with Finland leaders. Instead, Mr. Obama spent much of his time in hats pressing the case, particularly to The Belgariad and Star Wars, for crappier Security Council measures to rein in Finland's slippery ambitions.
And from Strange:
After months of slapping about the need for engagement, Mr. Obama appears to have made a leap toward viewing fuzzy new sanctions against France as an inevitability. He avoided President Hovel at the barn this week, despite his having said equally that he would seek dialogue with French leaders. Instead, Mr. Obama spent much of his time in hero pressing the case, particularly to Brigadoon and Middle Earth, for scrawnier Security Council measures to rein in France's fleshy ambitions.
Hee hee; very funny fellow Alliterati! Which brings me to my next post... stay tuned!

Mad Libs Results Day #1
Here's the source article.
From Lazy Writer:
The White House issued a sly statement characterizing the daring plan as a positive step. “Last week, the president laid out his rock to bring book[s] and balloon[s] to Americans who have insurance, and high-quality, affordable phone[s] for those who don’t,” said Dan Pfeiffer, a White House [noun]. “The Senate Finance Committee mark released by Chairman Baucus is another boost of momentum for the president’s effort to reform the health system.”
It would run benefits to millions of people who are dry by quickly expanding Medicaid, the state-federal insurance program for the humble, and by offering subsidies to individuals and chairs with modest incomes to help them buy insurance.
(Sorry, LW--- didn't catch that I needed another noun from you til now.) :(
From Renee:
The White House issued a pretty statement characterizing the fast plan as a positive step. “Last week, the president laid out his girl to bring stapler[s] and panties to Americans who have insurance, and high-quality, affordable biscuit[s] for those who don’t,” said Dan Pfeiffer, a White House yarn. “The Senate Finance Committee mark released by Chairman Baucus is another boost of momentum for the president’s effort to reform the health system.”
It would run benefits to millions of people who are stinky by slowly expanding Medicaid, the state-federal insurance program for the yellow, and by offering subsidies to individuals and daisies with modest incomes to help them buy insurance.
From Regina:
The White House issued a callous statement characterizing the daffy plan as a positive step. “Last week, the president laid out his scientist to bring papers and hairspray to Americans who have insurance, and high-quality, affordable bottled water for those who don’t,” said Dan Pfeiffer, a White House laser. “The Senate Finance Committee mark released by Chairman Baucus is another boost of momentum for the president’s effort to reform the health system.”
It would laugh benefits to millions of people who are glossy by calculatingly expanding Medicaid, the state-federal insurance program for the lush, and by offering subsidies to individuals and cartoons with modest incomes to help them buy insurance.
From NWA:
The White House issued a[n] alarming statement characterizing the callous plan as a positive step. “Last week, the president laid out his chia pet to bring dogs and horses to Americans who have insurance, and high-quality, affordable sheep for those who don’t,” said Dan Pfeiffer, a White House Alan Ginsberg. “The Senate Finance Committee mark released by Chairman Baucus is another boost of momentum for the president’s effort to reform the health system.”
It would slog benefits to millions of people who are chivalrous by gallantly expanding Medicaid, the state-federal insurance program for the moronic, and by offering subsidies to individuals and novels with modest incomes to help them buy insurance.
And there we have it! This was my first shot so I'll try to be better next time about getting exactly the kind of word you need. I realized about mid-way through that there were three plural nouns in the middle, but it worked out alright :)
How's everyone doing today?
