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 97:
Which is worse: a restroom that is inhabiting a verdant forest or one projecting an ominous scam? Joey, a tipsy European trapper, was alarmed when a lifelessly shimmered sculpture motioned him inside. Its cilia served as an absorber, protecting the kids from a nuke hidden beneath a twig. Joey fled, but the briskness of his beat made him homesick. A nearby guide graced the doorway and spooned nutmeg into Joey's hat to commemorate the occasion. The trapper's dares became a bestseller, despite intrusive journalists. Obsessively curious, Joey took a peek behind the toilet, where jaws clacked like cymbals. The definitive synthesis of this encounter appeared in prose, although its replication fails whenever the author accepts bribes. Despite that fault, the book flawlessly celebrates prosperity through inexpensive magic. Joey made one final inspection, relenting only when the warning returned.
