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 49:

The tyrant tried to organize a royal jamboree in accordance with an ancient latin recipe he discovered amidst a pile of dank laundry. His belated invitation became a bestseller, attracting several gangs of defensive musicians from the Elbe region. Unfortunately, a cabaret performer began angling for free cheese, while a respondent demanded a cubit of tinder in exchange for secrecy. Their separate negotiations became increasingly degrading. The hindmost guest, sculpting a modern mount of butter, suddenly began to wail. The king attempted to repay everyone's respects, but his electrons would somehow misfire and cause gloomy suffering. He thinks he was outdone, having procured nothing but cheapness. Hurling himself into a dive beneath the orchestra stage, he demanded everyone confess their crimes. Nobody could disappoint him more than the man who had wrangled the entire affair.
