Fantastic word game

[DToTheJ]

He moved to Twin Peaks and started practising psychiatry, but these days, you can find him giving therapy to Connecticut residents who once rode a mechanical bull.

 

[dmargalotti]

Mechanical bull repair is just another dying profession in this country much like radio disc jockeys and telephone operators.

 

[WMC2006]

Radio disc jockeys and telephone operators are a dying breed but you can visit some originals just outside of town at the PowerWorld Wax Museum and Gift Emporium.

 

[dmargalotti]

The PowerWorld Wax Museum and Gift Emporium is open every day of the year except for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

 

[quadraphonic]

Thanksgiving and Christmas are some of the 36 paid holidays for the FWG (or TFWG as some prefer)/PowerWorld staff.

 

[dmargalotti]

The FWG (or TFWG as some prefer)/PowerWorld staff are as the old saying goes, the cream of the crop.

 

[Basnya]

The cream of the crop is an interesting idiom as the two really don't go together- that is, cream is a dairy product while anything that can be called a crop is grown in soil, such as corn, wheat, barley or beans.

 

[WMC2006]

Corn, wheat, barley, or beans are your choices every day in the cafeteria but I usually grab a burger or a hotdog.

Geez, I don't know of any PowerWorld employees who take all 36 paid holidays a year. I don't even think dmargalotti takes them all. Then again, he's always away on those international band camp excursions. Who really knows what he does when he's away? :

 

[Silkie]

A burger or a hot dog simply cannot replace delicious antipasto and shrimp scampi.

Some great big shrimp (granted, it has to be shelled)
mince some garlic
little bit of dry vermouth
unsalted buttah
some lemon zest
garnish it with some parsley sprigs
and yer good to go. The antipasto recipe is somewheres around page 1300 or something, but it's great before the shrimp scampi.

 

[WMC2006]

Deliscious antipasto and shrimp scampi is one of the excellent dishes available at Miss Silky's Tasty Tidbits which is located on the east side of town.

 

[kenrayc]

The east side of town along with the north is where all of the new subdivisions, shopping centers, and schools are being built.

The south and the west is filled up all the way to the border of the next city.

 

[WMC2006]

All of the new subdivisions, shopping centers, and schools are being built just a few miles away because we have found that, eventually, all our band camp graduates come back home to roost.

 

[Darth_vader]

Come back home to roost in all of the new subdivisions, shopping centers, and schools that are being built[/b] where there were once fields and trees, where there were once vast ecosystems that have now bwwn all but destroyed, where we once used to play, race and walk the dogs, and since this now is all our kids will know, they will ask us what it was like out there when we were their age and they'll think we're making it all up.

[size=8pt]Update: HTML front-end to the wgzoo mirror is now more or less done. Access http://mistman.pdp10.org/pub/filebox/fwg/wgzoo/ and tell me how you feel about it, what needs improvement etc.

(Remember: don't say it needs a few images--graphic data on the World Wide Web are taboo when I'm writing pages. There won't be a search function, either, because more likely than not, it'll require Javascripting--also taboo.)

 

[WMC2006]

They'll think we're making it up but all you have to do is go to our Northwest Quadrant and visit just a few miles from Darth's company office where all the former forestland is now bricks and mortar.

 

[quadraphonic]

Bricks and Mortar would have been a better name for Frosted Mini Wheats, and I always found the brand name "Grape Nuts" misleading, even as a child.

 

[DToTheJ]

Even as a child, Ryan Seacrest worked several jobs, from "Lemonade Stand Idol" to "Keeping Up With Kris Kringle."

[dmargalotti]

Kris Kringle sees you when you're sleeping and he knows when you're awake which means in certain states he could be charged with stalking.

 

[WMC2006]

Stalking Page 2234, I notice that DTTJ, for some reason, posted the same contribution twice and I have to wonder if he wasn't paying attention for those 13 seconds between posts or if there was a Radio-Info board malfunction.

We don't like those artifically inflated numbers. We'll get Darth and the techie guys on it right away.

 

[dmargalotti]

A Radio-Info board malfunction could be the reason for the double post but based on my experience I'm more inclined to think it was a case of operator error.
