Fantastic word game

Unglued by the intense summer sunshine beaming through the windows of my second-grade classroom, my collage of the signing of the Declaration of Independence wound up in hundreds of little pieces all over the floor.
 
"All over the floor is precisely where this so-called 'declaration' belongs," harrumphed King George III, dispatching the Royal Navy to the rebellious colonies shortly before tea.
 
The kettle in Disney's animated Beauty & The Beast movie started to leave the kitchen because she thought Belle had finished eating, but the stew pot whistled and said "You need to stay here," and this is a perfect example of the pot calling the kettle back.

Anyone who wants to continue this game, be my guest!
 
Back on the west coast, a quake has hit California so I hope Kenny checks in with us soon so we know he's ok.

I am only guessing he flew back home as usual after last night's Rockfest at Illusions. LARR, how YOU doing in your area?
 
Ok is everything in Central Ca as I didn't feel any earthquake and I'm watching the 49ers game in the SF Bay Area and there was no mentioning of any earthquake in that area.
 
OK is what I told quad when he asked if I could tell him how to abbreviate Oklahoma, and after I said "OK" he asked me how to abbreviate Oklahoma.

I had to explain it to him. WMC, I'm a few miles north of Los Angeles. We've had major earthquakes in 1933, 1971, 1987, 1991 and 1994. Scientists tell us that our long-predicted "Big One" is inevitable. I hope they're wrong. I have family members who run a winery near Napa but apparently they're all okay after this morning's 6.0 earthquake. There were no deaths in the quake. Whew!
 
So Kenny and I were typing at the same time. Okay (or OK), let me start over:

There was no mentioning of any earthquake in that area but my cousin said that he knew something was wrong when he looked at his plate and observed that his bacon and eggs were jiggling but his Jell-O was standing still.

Get it?
 
Where you are when you are standing in front of a "You are here" sign is not really where the sign tells you you are, because the sign is in front of you and for the sign to be accurate you would have to be standing on top of it, although then you probably wouldn't be able to read the sign.

Take that, Five Man Electrical Band!
 
Read the sign when you walk into Miss Silkie's Tasty Tidbits so you know what to sample and what not to sample.

Do sample the chocolate chip muffins. Do not sample the lovely interns.

And, hey, Fall Session move-in is this Labor Day weekend. Volunteers, as always, are needed and appreciated. Sign up sheets are available in the lobby and, of course, online via your company email. As always, we appreciate any and all help starting Saturday morning at 8am and right through Monday afternoon. We will have a few early move-ins Friday afternoon. PowerWorld appreciates your support.
 
The most wonderful thing happened last night because I had a dream that I moved into a new house and my neighbors on either side were Olivia Newton-John and Megan McCormick.
 
Olivia Newton-John and Megan McCormick will record an album of duets which will be a tribute to Patience and Prudence.

Neither patience nor prudence may be desirable traits in playing the FWG...
 
Patience and Prudence were two young sisters who were living next door to Hugh Downs in 1958, and after Downs quit his announcing job on Sid Caesar's tv show and moved away so he could begin hosting Concentration, the girls wrote a song for Sid Caesar to sing, Gonna Get Along Without Hugh Now.

Actually the song was written by Milton Kellem and had been a hit for Teresa Brewer but I couldn't have made a clever post if I had stuck to all the facts! Hugh Downs did start hosting Concentration in 1958, though.
 
Now that we have established that there will not be any dump cake in band camp this weekend, we can move on to more ludicrous topics.
 
More ludicrous topics than the lepidopterous-loving losers, lecherous lotharios and lugubrious luthiers who are loath to give up licking licorice are going to be hard to come up with.

If anyone does come up with something, be sure to write it in a loose-leaf notebook.
 
Hard to come up with for most people are fun and interesting factoids but LARR just has a knack for it just like when he recently came up with some factoids about Hugh Downs which he will provide to us with his next contribution.
 
His next contribution will, I hope, include a discussion of the differences between factoids and hemorrhoids.

If you're suffering from inflamed factoids, try Preparation F.
