                            CAVE EXPLORING
                           By Raquel Jandrow
    
    
    If you like to go *gardening* in *slow* caves that are *4* feet
    underground, you should go to the *Colored* Mammoth Caves located
    in *The Kitchen*.  Thousands of *silly* *golems* go there every 
    summer.
    
    Crawling about in caves is called spelunking.  It is really an
    *urbane* sport.  But always go with a *mendacious* guide so you won't
    get lost.  Once in the cave, you will se beautiful *purple* and *teal*
    rocks and crystals.  Huge *dotty* things hang from the ceiling and are
    called stalagtites.  Huge *macaronic* things jut up from the floor and
    are called stalagmites.  Caves are home for millions of *lachrymose*
    bats.  Bats can fly and look like *tacit* rats.   Spelunking is
    dangerous, so be sure to wear special shoes with *podunks* on them
    and a hat with a battery powered *paroxysm*.
    
    
    NOTE.....Raq, are all of those *xxxxx* actually real words??? :*)
    
    
    If you've made your list of words, just fill them in in place of the
    words in astericks.

A Letter Written by Mike Wannahoney to our ould friend Hamburger. :*)
Dear Hamburger,
Well, here we are at the *Filthy* Seaside Hotel in *The White House*.
The weather is *goofy*, and the temperature is *1,365,234* degrees.
Our hotel room looks out onto a garden filled with *poi* trees and 
tropical *girls*.  The natives are all *slinky* and spend their time
*stripping* and riding their *guns* through the streets.  Most of them
only speak *murican*, but I can communicate with them by making signs
with my *tallywhackers*.  The local food is really *small*.  Mostly they 
eat *skinny* burritos and refried *M&M's*.  Our hotel only cost a hundred
*gargoyles* a day.  We are going to spend the week *looking* and then
come home.  Wish you were here.
Love always,
Mike

                         Computer Camp
                         By Judy
Last year I took my vacation at a computer camp.  There were
fourty-two *potatoes* there, and we spent four hours every
morning learning how to *spit* a computer.  Computers can
give you instant access to information such as how many adult
males in *Bolivia* are married to *fortune-tellers*.  Or which
U.S. president passed the *anorexic* bill of *dungeons*.  You
can also get *sterile* discs that will let you play electronic
games using your computer's *villain*, and computers can project
coming events and tell you when the next *flasher* will be held.
And what the gross national *Viola* will be in 1999.  A computer
can also be used as a *pervert* processor.  It will print letters
or business reports or *windows*.  It was very educational, but 
this year I am going to an *omnipotent* camp.
                             ^^^^^^^^
                       (Wasn't this supposed to be a noun?
                        I thought omnipotent was an adjective?)

                         By Ms. M. Scanlon
Last year I took my vacation at a computer camp.  There were
fourty-two *highways* there, and we spent four hours every
morning learning how to *eat* a computer.  Computers can
give you instant access to information such as how many adult
males in *Belgium* are married to *run-aways*.  Or which
U.S. president passed the *moldy* bill of *stockings*.  You
can also get *screeching* discs that will let you play electronic
games using your computer's *appetizer*, and computers can project
coming events and tell you when the next *hanging* will be held.
And what the gross national *traffic jam* will be in 1999.  A computer
can also be used as a *backyard* processor.  It will print letters
or business reports or *canoes*.  It was very educational, but 
this year I am going to a *lingerie* camp.

OUTER SPACE POETRY
BY: Judy
Twinkle Twinkle little ROBOT
How I wonder what you are
Up above the VERANDA so high
Like a TENT in the sky.
Hey diddle diddle, the ZEBRA
And the OBOE
The cow jumped over the HERO
The little dog HUGGED to see such a sport
And the PINEAPPLE ran away with the spoon
Starlight, star bright, first HOT AIR BALLOON I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the FISH I PULLED tonight

OUTER SPACE POETRY

Twinkle Twinkle little HOLE
How I wonder what you are
Up above the BOTTOM so high
Like a BED in the sky.
Hey diddle diddle, the TIGER
And the SKINFLUTE 
The cow jumped over the PILLOW
The little dog SLEPT to see such a sport
And the LAUGHTER ran away with the spoon
Starlight, star bright, first BREATH I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the TOY I PLAYED tonight

OUTER SPACE POETRY
BY: Chele
Twinkle Twinkle little FUNGUS
How I wonder what you are
Up above the SPORRAN so high
Like a MISSILE in the sky.
Hey diddle diddle, the FERRET
And the BAGPIPES
The cow jumped over the HANDBAG
The little dog DANCED to see such a sport
And the CORPSE ran away with the spoon
Starlight, star bright, first TALON I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the FEATHERS I BUTCHERED tonight

    to cons those up from the provided answers & the text-with-blanx...?

    I just type the story once, then keep editing the same file
    to change the words for each entry.  Doesn't take long at all.
