This is a segment where I'll give an author the title and list of words needed to complete the story,

I will then post the completed Mad Lib here. I asked Stephanie to fill in the blanks and this is the funny but tragic tale we came up with. 

"Samson and Delilah (A Tragic Dialogue)"

DELILAH:   Sam Samson! Will you stop doing those silly exercises.

SAMSON:   Listen, Delilah. I have to keep my tomatoes in shape. After all, I'm the strongest    

          Unicorn in the tribe.

DELILAH:   Well, you look ethereal. Look a the way your hair hangs down over your toy.

SAMSON:   I've been busy. Yesterday I had to kill 10,000 Philistines with the jawbone of a          

             hippopotamus.

DELILAH:   Filthy swine! You promised to take me to a dirty party tonight.

SAMSON:   Okay. So I'll skip my hair.

DELILAH:   I'll do it for you. Now just sit here on this bicycle and I'll give you a tired haircut.

SAMSON:   Okay.

DELILAH:   There. Your table is nice and short. How do you fell?

SAMSON:   Yellow.

"Description of a Horror TV Show"

Last week, I saw a television show that really gave me Badger pimples! It starred Big Bird as a mad Ballet Dancer who discovers a way to make bedbugs fourteen feet high! The scientist has a goofy assistant, played by Oscar the Grouch, who gets mad because the scientist keeps hitting him on the head with a pebble. So he lets the bedbugs loose. Right away they start to eat up Indonesia. The army tries to stop them by spraying them with Gatorade, but that doesn't bother those hairy bedbugs. They go right on and eat up Chicago. Then the army drops an atom pug on them and this kills all of them except one super bedbug who grabs the frantic scientist and jumps into a volcano. And then the goofy assistant takes off his disguise and says, "I was only a hog for the F.B.I.," and he marries the scientist's beautiful satin, who is played by Yoda, and they live sadly ever after.
