Fantastic word game

Doesn't make a lot of sense to this ramblin' redneck, with 11 months (4 to the realists) ending in "ber", but if that's what it took, at that particular moment, to move us along in the game, then I'm happy to do the same.

Pass me a couple of those gummies, partner. On second thought, y'all excuse me while I step away to go rifle through the Cajun Prince's sock drawer. I'm sure as the dickens he's got a stash hidden somewhere in that pig sty he calls a room.
 
I'm happy to do the same things today that I have done all weekend long which is assisting band campers and their families with whatever help they need.

Everything has gone very smoothly this weekend. Just a few international campers are still left to check in over the next few hours. Other than that, no major issues other than a few of the younger campers already going through some feelings of home sickness. We'll take care of them. Thanks to all of the PowerWorld volunteers. I'll be popping over to my plush Game Czar office for a little while. On the way, I'll be stopping into Miss Silkie's Tasty Tidbits for some snacks and goodies.
 
Whatever help they need was provided by the administrative volunteers, Miss Silkie and the interns, band camp graduates, HOSS scanman and his security staff plus the rest of us from the Executive Board.
 
The Executive Board will either do its job or the peasants (shareholders as some prefer) will be brandishing the pitchforks.
 
Brandishing the pitchforks and torches as you angrily hurl demeaning insults at your local game czar who is sequestered away in his corner office is one way to express your displeasure over the potential demise of your favorite word game.
 
The potential demise of your favorite word game would likely lead to a nationwide uptick of library interns searching for the next gig.

Don't y'all interns worry your pretty little heads about it, though. I do have several job openings at the RCM Ranch. Knowing how to line dance, and properly pour a tall, frosty glass of Miller Lite without all the foamy head are vital requirements.You will be auditioning for yours truly and, of course, my favorite heifer. If you don't own a pair of boots, and a pair of shorty jean shorts (Daisy Dukes, as many prefer) you needn't bother to show up for the interview process.
 
Since the job market is starting to ramp up again, we'd better step up our recruitment of experienced mercenaries to assist us in our battle to protect this game from the rumored intentions of RadioDiscussions' upper management.
 
Management hasn't made any definitive decisions yet so let's be on our best behavior so as not to give them any bad ideas.

I may be holed up in my plush corner office but rest assured I am on the phone making calls and to other potential 'homes'.
 
Bad ideas typically tend to turn out tragic and sad, but sometimes they can turn out to be tremendous successes.

Case in point. Adding leftover sticks and seeds to a pigs' feed trough, will fatten your swine by as much as 30lbs. Probably would work with them there gummies, too.
 
Tremendous successes can be achieved if you keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.

Can anybody tell me who made that quote famous?
 
'Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars' is a quote made famous by the legendary Casey Kasem who counted down the hits every week on American Top 40 which aired on great radio stations around the world.
 
Forthcoming approbation of dmargalotti's post was withheld by CTListener, while everybody else was duly impressed and overwhelmingly voted to override and remove the demerits, as the recommended comma appears to be misplaced if the first comma is placed between "day" and "which", but then two commas around "hopefully", also suggested by the comma happy decorative editor.

You say tomahto, and we all say tomato. Just sayin'. The first comma between which and will looks perfectly fine as it is.
 
The comma happy decorative editor asks you and whoever else voted to override the demerits to look at dmargalotti's sentence again and tell me how one can say with a straight face that "day which, will hopefully meet" makes any sense.

Oh, and where is the hyphen that should be between your "comma" and "happy"? Tsk, tsk. Another stone thrown from a glass house. Three demerits.
