    Default Leonard Herman MAD LIB I - Completed!

    You've all played MAD LIBS. You fill in the blanks with various word parts and in the end a pre-defined paragraph is made "silly" by the new words that have been inserted into the text.

    I've taken a very celebrated video game writer's work (actually just three paragraphs sent to Digital Press some time ago) and will now ask you to replace certain words. When you're done, I'll show you your creation.

    It's easy. And Leonard, you're welcome to play.

    First. I need an "action verb".

    Yeah, let as many different people in on this as possible. So far I've got "slapping" and "24".

    NEXT: a toy.

    Great! I actually needed two "collectibles" so I got both of those.

    NEXT: a year or event.

    OK Let's call it Super Bowl XIX.

    This one's important: need a video game console.

    Someone else wanna answer this one?
