decrescendo derring-do mansard

As Neville the Adventurous finally exited the tortuous trap-ridden passage, an abrupt decrescendo in his testosterone-fuelled theme music alerted him to an impending shock. However, Neville's acts of derring-do knew no limits, and he swaggered boldly into the next room, assured of his victory against any foe or obstacle. Unfortunately for Neville, his macho posturing availed him little against the unexpected plunge from the concealed mansard around the corner, and Neville had no choice but to close his eyes and hope for the best as the cobbled street impassively awaited his swift arrival.

Ahaha, I just realised I left my notes at the top of that last entry...my definitions of the words, copied and pasted from www.m-w.com :roll: :oops:

Well, anyone going to take up the challenge?

As he slowly ate his mousse, jim became aware of something walking towards him through the trees, so he grabbed his gun from his pack. The moose came out of the trees and saw jim and made a bad decision, to run towards the armed man. Moments later the moose was dead, its brains made to soar over the forest.

lame game came

Stroking his manly stubble contemplatively, the man known as CovenantJr formulated his next lame entry. Despite his limited creative resources, the Kevin's Watch sentence game was the only thing that gave his life meaning, and he responded to the topic compulsively. In fact, Mr Covenant deluded himself that the ridiculous pants-themed entries of the past were merely evidence that he was biding his time, until the moment came when he would unleash the full force of his imagination, and bring the other participants to their knees.

lampoon harpoon monsoon

Too soon after noon did I attempt to lampoon the moon with a magically-hewn rune of illusion. Before the tune of the loon, I did harpoon that moon with a beacon of phantasmal maroon. The maroon impugned the true moon's luminous boon, and unleashed a spot monsoon that doomed this astrological buffoon to a most unglamorous fate.

freight credo voracious

Down from the fourteenth freight car came a line of longshoremen, carrying a long case among them. The credo of each seemed to be, I don’t want it, you carry it! Hissing within the case, showing flashes of purple through the bars, was a voracious dragonlily, destined for a new home with Johan Cerios, the greatest dragon tamer of them all.

meringue aerial Stetson

The sweltering afternoon heat doomed the 1st annual Texas Summer Bake-off, slagging iced cakes and deflating even the stiffest meringue. An aerial photo might look more like a Dali painting, the journalist snickered to himself. With a final glance at the pastry wasteland, the freelancer tipped his Stetson in a mock-cowboy goodbye and retreated to the air-conditioned luxury of his rented SUV.

cantata brandish ornithine

Determined to go down swinging, the beleaguered conductor signaled his musicians for the grand cantata. Like a soldier charging to his death, he began to brandish his wand. Woodwinds began to honk and toot, the string section wailed in enthusiastic disarray, and sopranos gargled some dismal ornithine concoction.

It soon became clear to Ralph that downwind of his new boss was a place he must remember never to be caught in. Mr. Gregory, it seemed, was quite famous for his pungent emissions; earning among his employees the secret, and rather unfortunate label, "Mister Stinkypants." Being caught unawares on the windward side of the man was enough to fluster anyone, Ralph thought queasily.

Woe Toe Goat

It was a day filled with woe. First, I dropped a pail full of milk on my toe. My howl of pain spooked the billy-goat, who butted me through the wall of the barn.

Cloven woven genre

the cloven hooves of the centaur did not impede them in their sworn task.
They were to assemble a woven tapestry of vines and hair which to present to their demigod. When finished it was a remarkable representation of their genre, one no one would soon surpass.

cavalla capricious cannoli

So quickly as to be nearly imperceptible, cavalla split into fine shreds under the paper-thin steel of the knife. Programmed to be capricious for his owner’s amusement, the chef-bot allowed his randomly arced circuits to map out his worst invention yet. He expected his fish and mushroom paste, wrapped into a cannoli with strawberry and maple syrup, to win him his freedom from domestic servitude.

Thanks Joy, I just happened to be eating dinner at the time I read your last entry. Needless to say I had to stop for a moment and clear my palate.

As I Approached the water hazard I noticed a large koi with a round white ventral protrusion. He said (it was a magical talking Koi) if I were to quell his angst by removing the obstruction, he would do me a favor in return. And for my Good Samaritan efforts he granted me free passage to play the back nine whenever I wanted.

chasten halocline castrati

It was expected that a solo dive would chasten Jack, giving him reason to correct his sloppy equipment technique. As he descended alone through the halocline into colder, higher-pressure ocean waters, the imbalanced oxygen/helium mix in his tank kicked in. By the time his feet touched sand-covered boulders, with only the occasional tatters of plastic bag, Jack could have warbled like a castrati, only no one would have heard him.

Roger in utmost haste slammed the neutron drive to maximum velocity trying to escape the laser blasts. When the drive began to rumble he thought about the specious argument his second in command had given for stopping in this sector of Grid-Space 17. If only it had been true then he could have used the resources in Grid-Space 17 and carved his name into the Who's Who of Space Tax Collection.

Faced with impending doom, the doughty explorer whipped his thesaurus from his belt. Under "weapon" his flying fingers found "scourge". Quickly he brandished his belt, and the head of the mighty osrichus rex plunged into the nearest sandbank.

As Professor Livingston made his revelatory proclamation the crowd hushed with anticipation. He had discovered the secret to keeping the elderly male members perpendicular, from a natural source. By combining the wood of an Indigo Beech tree with the tangy woad, it would proliferate a panacea for bad backs and the like.
