WORD OF THE DAY
 
Thank you, dear Mar, for your kindness in choosing me as the Winner of the WOD Competition!
 
Here is the Word of the Day, (it is a common UK expression), for you to send your definitions over the weekend.
 
The phrase is:
 
"THE LOLLIPOP LADY"
 
Who is The Lollipop Lady?
What is The Lollipop Lady?
Why is The Lollipop Lady?
When is The Lollipop Lady?
Where is The Lollipop Lady?
How is The Lollipop Lady?
 
I await, with avid, anxious anticipation, your daft definitions; your exhausting explanations;  your dizzy descriptions; your idiotic interpretations; your cooky clarifications; your dotty denotations; your erudite expositions; your insane illustrations; your enigmatic elucidations; your absurd accounts; your wretched reports; your cock-eyed comments; your foolish footnotes; your jelly-brained justifications; your enthusiastic explications; your asinine answers; your ridiculous rationalisations; your vapid vindications; and your crass, barmy, potty, crackpot, hare-brained, crack-brained, half-baked hypothesese theorising this theme.
 
"Ready?  On your Marks!  GO!"

The Lollipop Lady was from the Land of Oz and married to the Candy Man (don �t say his name three times in front of the mirror). Together they ran the Lollipop Guild. Unfortunately they were a bit harsh with the Munchkins working long hours with little compensation and there were rumors of kickbacks and bribes. Really nasty stuff. Eventually the Munchkins revolted and ran her and  Candy Man out of Oz and they are now reciding in the Wicked Witch of the West �s former castle which went on the market after she was murdered by Scarecrow. The Lollipop Lady is trying to make a comeback in the candy industry but the economy being so depressed and Candy Man filing for divorce after her affair with Tin Man, things don �t look promising. Any more questions???
