Fantastic word game

Bob Barker, host of the Price is Right (The Price Is Right, as he would prefer) lived to the ripe old age of 99 while spaying and neutering pets as often as he could.
 
As often as he could, Bob would also reportedly make inappropriate comments to the models on stage who came to be known as Barker's Beauties.

Reminds me of a certain former game czar and a particular set of lovely young library interns.
 
Barker's Beauties came and went over the years but they always succeeded in making those prizes look so much better.

dmargalotti, I have NO idea of which you speak. The interns loved me then and they love me now. I am horrified, horrified I tell you, that you would insinuate such vile behavior. It's all absolutely true but I'm still horrified.
 
Cracker Jack (or Cracker Jacks as all Cracker Jacks lovers prefer) snacks, if I recall correctly because it's been a minute since I had any, are all sticky and gooey with the best part of them being the silly little prize inside the box.
 
The silly little prize inside the box was a treat for children who, even at their young age, knew the name of the product was Cracker Jack, not Cracker Jacks as WMC has mistakenly alleged.

Please refer to exhibit 1 below...

WMC has mistakenly alleged to have checked the interweb for the correct spelling of Cracker Jack (or Cracker Jacks as The Google told him in a very quick search to which he should have paid more attention).

Good thing the DoL isn't spending much time here. I'd be collecting a few demerits right about now. Speaking of not spending much time here, anyone seen HOSS scanman lately? Looks like you and I are holding down the fort, dmargalotti.
 
More attention needs to be paid to linguistic correctness, as the Director of Linguistics (DoL as most prefer) could sneak in at any moment and slap you with an unexpected demerit or two.
 
An unexpected demerit or two could indeed show up at any moment but probably from someone other than the DoL (CTListener as some prefer) because he seems to spend most of his time contributing to the Word Association game rather than the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as I have lovingly preferred for a very long time).
 
Contributing to the Word Association game rather than the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as I have lovingly preferred for a very long time) is quicker because you only have to read one word before replying, unlike this game with its sometimes long and meandering contributions and end clues that can be excessively long,
 
Security screening at band camp usually includes a thorough questioning from a band camper and a pat down from a lovely young library intern.

That second part kind of encourages people to bring in illegal things so we'll have to re-address that at some point in the future.
 
A follow-up meeting with H.R. might result in disciplinary action including but not limited to verbal warning, written warning, suspension, or termination.

Perhaps one or more of those actions is responsible for scanman's and CT's disappearances. Or maybe they went on a hayseed search and didn't tell anyone.
