By the way, when we were creating these puzzles using randomized lists of words, we often thought of a silly game we played as children. We would take a dictionary (or a book, magazine or newspaper), randomly open it and with our eyes closed, drop our fingers onto the page. Whatever words they landed on would be written down. This would be repeated a few times until we basically had a jumbled list of words. Then we would challenge each other to come up with a story using these words. The stories would almost always be pure nonesense. But sometimes they were pretty hilarious. Give it a try, it's a lot of fun!

Here's what we came up with using the word list from Puzzle 81:

They need to wean themselves from the habit of teaching a fleet of bluebirds to bounce over a cherry sandwich. Their captain, a corked salesman with a one carat oyster, warned that doom awaited anyone who tried to ravish the manure. The crew stood inside three tubs and attempted to weave a rescue net for the stranded whaler, who insisted he was allergic to water.
