Fantastic word game

Government flunkies have been known to staff the PowerWorld band camp cafeterias in their efforts to redeem themselves in the eyes of their constituents.


Cat, darling, I know what a participle is. But kenny called (typed) it as something else which is where my comment came from. Ok? ;)

Welcome to new contributor jrjackson. Jr, welcome aboard and please feel free to read any and all of the previous 1200 or so pages of TFWG to familiarize yourself with the game.

I will now briefly introduce our TFWG Executive Board:

Game Czar: WMC2006 (that would be me)
TPS Czar: quadraphonic
Linguistics Director: raptusregaliter
International Band Camp Director: dmargalotti
Director of Energy, Tourism, Topless Driving, and Instant Gratification Trivia: Anyacat

Head Mixologist/Librarian: Silkie (not on Exective Board but important back office operations staff)


THE RULES: Please use ONE sentence and one sentence only (preferably a well constructed, well written, perfectly spelled sentence). Begin your sentence using the bolded (or capitalized) ending clue from the previous contribution. Please remember to bold that and also to bold your new ending clue. Clues may be a single word, proper name, phrase, whatever floats your boat. Just don't get out of control and always remember to bold it. Some people are unable to utilize the bold feature. Instead, you may capitalize or use whatever means necessary to reinforce what your clue is.

Again, welcome aboard, and TFWG and PowerWorld LLC appreciate your support.
 
Their constituents are growing less and less pleased with today's politicos, and would rather have people who are out to help the masses, like at the TFWG.

Welcome jrjackson. Why wouldn't you want to read all the pages?
I have hurrrd that sometimes people rescan all the past pages just for kicks during lunch. But then I do that, I see where I didn't do the right bolding, or I didn't use the right clue because R-I pointed me to the wrong post as the last post, and I get kinda forlorn. But then I see all the victories that have happened, and all the casual Olivia Newton-John drop-ins, and it's all right.

I've seen some pm's where there are Reading Parties where people get together in local bookstores and coffee houses and open mic nights to read through the TFWG in character, and to discuss the rules, like it's "TFWG: THE GATHERING" or something. They claim those parties go from "7pm until...." but most of them people are too afraid to actually post here, so they probably don't last "until 5am" like you'd think. I guess there's no harm in living vicariously through these pages and dedicated homages, if it keeps the bookstores busy, not to mention the internets.

 
The TFWG welcomes all new comers with open arms and hope they like their new jobs as janitors and sanitation specialists.

(Hey, WMC, I was just responding to a post.)
 
Janitors and sanitation specialists can go as far as they want to go in the TFWG, as long as they keep abreast of the rules, the tone and direction of most of the 1200 or so pages so far, and keep their noses clean.
 
Clean up and clean out will be the order of several days for thousands of people in the northeast as they attempt to recover from flooding and high winds this weekend.


Jr, my son, it was a joke. And, please, don't waste a post without contributing to the game. You are allowed to do both. The dialogue between all of us goes in italics as you can see from what quadraphonic did a couple of posts back.

Good morning everyone. Looks like I beat dmargalotti this morning. ;)
 
flooding and high winds this weekend weren't as bad as last weekend, but by thursday it's going to be 78 degrees in the Central Valley in CA.
 
Tired I am of dealing with the power outages affecting our studios that are now into day 3 with no end in sight.

We got hammered...and when this is over, I'd like to get hammered with a few adult beverages...and I don't even drink!
 
A little nervous is how we who are quartered in the library feel as well, so we send our warmest thoughts and prayers to everyone who has a tree laying in the study and all who are without power.


Welcome, jr. Have a drink on kenrayc, and don't worry about it.

A dangling partipisiple is something i can't figure out, so have a drink on me while I rock out to AC/DC.

By way of reminder a dangling participle might also involve a misplaced modifier, i.e. the tree walking home - or Uncle Albert's story, "I once knew a man with a wooden leg, named Smith". "Really? What was the name of his other leg?"
 
9 months later you might still be trying to get the roof replaced, and never had time for any vo-dee-o-do.
 
Time for any vo-dee-o-do will happen eventually as Anyacat and her summer travelmates reach each and every magic travel moment.
 
Each and every magic travel moment is what we remember after the trip is over and have returned home to view the videos and photos made while we were away.


It's the things like airport delays, cheesy hotel rooms, squawking children and how much it all cost that we tend to forget.
 
While we were away the cats redecorated the house with toilet paper.

(I think I should learn how to change a tire. Last month, while on the way to my aunt's funeral, I hit a pot hole and didn't even notice that my tire went flat. I did notice that the people in the van next to me were looking at my car and I thought "Hum, I wonder if...naw, the car would wobble and I would hear a flap, flap, flap. However, when I entered the funeral home parking lot, the attendant said I couldn't line up for the procession because I had a flat tire. Damn. Fortunately, I immediately found a cousin who knew how to quickly change a tire. The repair, it was a nail, was inexpensive and the grease inside the care, along the beautiful mellow, yellow interior, was free.)
 
Toilet paper is a lot like life... the closer you get to the end of it, the faster it goes.


Can't remember where I first heard that, but it's accurate!
