By the way, when we were creating these puzzles using randomized word lists, we often thought of a silly game we played as children many years ago. We would take a dictionary (or any 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. We'd repeat this process a few times. This would effectively produce a randomized list of words. Then the challenge was to tell a story using those words in some fashion. The results were often pure nonesense. But always a lot of fun!
____________
Here's what we came up with using the word list from Puzzle 97:
"The dozy and soulless sandman from Zimbabwe asked if he could make the descent and commit to deflating the pious pawn. Legally there was no dispute from his thickset wife, who waved gaily to him. Quoting her later, ‘there was no need to kindle my interest or to brainwash me,’ she squealed huskily in a daze."
