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 25:
The nincompoop legislator grabbed his pants and shouted, "I shall abandon this town!" Over the ages, he insisted, it was time to begin a new career. His adviser, a bigamist named Carter, suggested chemistry, but their secret codeword was "turnip." The cohesive committee assembled beneath a dome. They drank green soup and stood dumbstruck as the chairwoman made an emphatic announcement: the famine was caused by foiling every foliated vegetable. A gleam appeared in the eye of the female herbalist. With a huff, she blamed public insecurity and a legal lacuna. The legislator now wore a sleeper and vowed to live as a monsieur, neuter the mayor's prized goat, and overlook the consequences. A ranger arrived carrying pins, a ploughshare, and a publication predicting the resurgence of sabotage. The scrubber threatened to secede from a serial spanking club, stipulating that stoves be banned from the strait. The scandal was symbolized by a trend: an uncannily unfettered wrongdoer playing a xylophone and learning to yowl.
