FIXER arrived to fix the
TOTAL chaos I had caused. He offered me a
CARAT (so I heard) to use him again when it came to cleaning my
TUNIC.

ouch!
HURRY! I said in a
NASAL whisper as we
CREPT along. Then my toenail caught on the
PRONG of a fork fallen in their flight.
And so it goes
SNOWY outside; the wild wind blows, the
OCTET practices for its next shows. The wind
EMBUEs their sound with aural glows; the
GROUP consists of eight banjos.
Twice Hitched
HITCHcock, the director, with suspense in mind,
SLYLY inveigled his main characters
ALOFT the Statue of Liberty. One would pay the
PRICE of his misdeeds in a splattering fall.
On the other hand…
James Stewart, in HITCH’s
film, Vertigo, also found himself ALOFT,
fell, and paid the PRICE
in madness, deluded by a SLYLY murderous couple.
Bullying
aBUSED I was as a kid, I was never
AGILE enough to get out of the bully’s way. A
MINTY was the upside, a sweetener, once I’d
DRIED my eyes and wiped my nose.
[I just couldn’t bring myself to use the US spelling of BUSSED…BUSED looks like FUSED, to me!]
Punctuation
HOLLY, in these litigious times, was
EXILEd to the vertiginous cliffs above the
MARSHes, because she misjudged the use of the Oxford
COMMA.
Fatherhood
‘Are you both soch coddly EVOKEs?’ –
meaning Ewoks – THEIR
mispronouncing DADDY
night on night requests. His twin sons’ PUPILs
sparkle.
Quordle dance
A SCOT said, I know there’s a dearth of words on Quordle, but
‘CIRCA’ three times in a month seems a bit extreme.
QUOTH the Quordle maker, Freddie Meyer, ‘Sorry, mate,’ there are only so many words I can
DANCE with.’
Speak of the Devil
BOOTH, the Salvationist, said, ‘How the
DEUCE do you think the devil is going to
PROVE you’re unsaved? Does he believe everyone will
ROAST alongside him in Hell?
Insensitive
The
BULKY fellow on the
CELLO is something of a
FIEND when he ruins the end of the serene piece with a loudly vocal
WHOOP!
