Fantastic word game

To pass the time, I'm relaxing down here in Florida on vacation but I'm still popping in to keep an eye on things even though Miss Silkie is in charge.

This weekend was supposed to be another pun-free weekend just like last weekend. But I'm not able to enforce it while I'm on vacation. Miss Silkie might want to enforce it if she has the time. Otherwise, I'll schedule another pun-free weekend in a couple of weeks.
 
Miss Silkie is in charge for the time being which means there won't be puns in my fantastic word game posts.

Maybe one of the pun pals could create a game board of puns, which might have the effect of bringing some of our posters back to the Fantastic Word Game (FWG as most everyone prefers).
 
My fantastic word game posts only occasionally contain puns, not because I don't like puns or because I can't pun, but because I am more interested in coming up with a final word or phrase that will send the discussion in a bizarre and unexpected direction, e.g., overripe persimmons.
 
Bread, pudding and jam recipes are some of Miss Silkie's specialties and are always the talk of the town throughout PowerWorld and the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as I and lots of other people except Miss Silkie prefer).
 
PowerWorld and the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as I and lots of other people except Miss Silkie prefer) in voluntary (yeah, right) cooperation with the FCC and other local authorities are conducting this test of the Emergency Alert System, this is only a test.
 
Test papers were to be turned in to the Professor as we left the classroom at 2 pm, and at 1:45 I still hadn't filled in the space that said "date" and I had no idea what to write because I wasn't dating anyone.

As I recall, he gave me a "K" on the paper---he said "F" wasn't low enough.
 
"I wasn't dating anyone, except maybe with radio active carbon," said Yvonne de Carload, the head nurse at the Spinhaven Home for Retired Disc Jockeys.

Being that they were retired disc jockeys, however, they were no longer radio active.
 
Retired Disc Jockeys recently held a reunion at the Sizzler restaurant on Highland Avenue in Hollywood, and when one of the ex-DJs ordered the sirloin steak platter, all the others immediately started yelling at him because "nobody calls them 'platters' anymore---they're CDs and MP3 files."
 
CDs and MP3 files don't hold much food (in fact, MP3 files don't hold any) but that's OK, they're dieting.

45 rpm singles hold a little more than CDs, but the peas keep falling thru the hole...(Peas out, brother.)
 
Into the office everyday our little teams of sleuths arrive with their magnifying glasses and microscopes to find out whodunnit, but today is a bit of a stumper for them, so they are in the phone room dialing up John Robie to lend a helping hand, while Mr. Hughson enjoys a few tasty treats in preparation for a lot of fancy footwork to nab the bad guys in The Diamond District Caper.

Let's hope they reach the right John Robie

To nab the bad guys in The Diamond District Caper, the police hired two women, Jade and Opal, to pose as diamond smugglers and convince the bad guys that they knew a man who had a plan to steal the famous Neil Diamond.

I can hardly wait to see how this story comes out! By the way---true story---Neil Diamond's cousin Richard used to be my dentist. Richard and his father Hyman (Neil's uncle) both used to live in Tujunga, northwest of Glendale. I never got to meet Neil though.
 
Neil Diamond starred in the remake of the classic film The Jazz Singer, originally released in 1927, and there are a few other releases we would like to see.
 
We would like to see both The Lovely Olivia (TLO as most prefer) and Megan stop by our band camp Thanksgiving Day buffet but we haven't heard back from them since contacting them.

If they don't respond by tomorrow afternoon, we'll send dmargalotti out on a not so international band camp expedition to meet up with them and spread the love as it were. I'm sure they'll have no problem agreeing to come by for the buffet.
 
Since contacting them we have kept our tin foil hats unwrinkled, and our fillings programmed to all the right frequencies, but still no check-ins, which tells me that their feelings are probably hurt, because all of the reporting about them visiting us has not resulted in a visit from us.
 
A visit from us might scare Dave & Kenny at this Saturday's Rockfest because we still haven't taken off our Hallowe'en costumes.

I will say, however, that Mister WMC looks good in his Doctor Doom outfit and Jeff is completely unrecognizable dressed as Swamp Thing.
 
Our Hallowe'en costumes have been put away, and it is Thanksgiving time once again, especially if you have seen the lounge with all of the families and friends of our band campers cheerfully and lightheartedly volunteering to take on some of the chores, given the bounty we have received already this month from people of goodwill everywhere.
 
People of goodwill everywhere are volunteering for duty at this years PowerWorld ThanksgivingFest (PWTF as most prefer).

If you are planning on volunteering at the band camp Thanksgiving buffet, please let me know ASAP so I can get a schedule together. I'll be there, Miss Silkie will be there, dmargalotti will be there thus far.
 
This years PowerWorld ThanksgivingFest (PWTF as most prefer) promises to be a pretty major event, with celebrations, games, fun and exciting history re-enactments and your choice of ham, turkey or peanut butter and jelly and tomato soup.

You just know somebody at the grown-ups' table will start crying and demanding peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and tomato soup to disrupt all the kiddies enjoying their caviar in the dining room, so we already covered it.
