This week, we started a
new series inspired by "Mad Libs." It occurred to me, two days later, that I never explained to you what "Mad Libs" are. Most of you knew. Some of you, surprisingly, did not.
Here's how the game is played: I pick an excerpt from a book and remove a handful of random words. Without showing you what the excerpt is, I tell you what kinds of words I need. You give me words, which I then place into the paragraph. Then you read it. If the words are good, it's funny and we play again.
