Like a reverse take on the old Mad Lib books of my misspent youth, I'm giving you bits of a headline and key ingredients to a humorous news brief. Your job, should you choose to accept it (or are able to follow along) will be to fill in the blanks, make the invisibles, revisible. Got it?
Headline segment:
Outraged ______ ______ ______ with ______ ______
That's the headline of your news story - five words missing, they can be anything you want (within the guidelines). Complete the headline, and then write the brief story that follows. But wait, there's a catch...
you must include the following words in your news brief ...
turnstile
giraffe
rotund
That's it, go to town.
The rules of the game are thus: Fill in the blanks in the headline above, and write the accompanying news brief. Keep in mind that profanity is not acceptable. As always, quality is a must, we will remove poor entries no matter how much we like you. You will have 5 days for this contest so make your submissions count.
Word guideline: 500
