Fun With Tom Swifties
« on: April 26, 2008, 12:37:06 PM »
This is a game of silly dialogue attribution. :D 
For example:
"I want to be a carpenter when I grow up," Tom said woodenly. 
"You need to watch your cholesterol," said Tom heartily.

Can you think of some more?  Here's one more to get things started:

"What's that, Lassie?  Timmy's in the well?" said Tom doggedly.
"Make good art." -Neil Gaiman
"Or failing that, entertaining trash." -Me

"Fir trees are a great renewable resource," Tom opined.
"Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. " -RAH

“I always wanted to be an auto-mechanic,” Mr. Carr purred.

“I asked a plumber to drop by and check the toilet later,” John called up the stairs.

“Ungh!” And that was about all any one ever got out of old man McAnally.

"There's always room for more congenial company here in McAnally's," Tom admitted.

“Lets ratchet it up folks,” proved to be the last words wrenched from Mr. Good’s lips.

"Hoodooed sure felt swift the morning after he tipped a bottle and forgot all about Tom through the night," poor old Turkey Tom S Wift attributed to cause.

Geesh. *Is Sheepish."

"It's just soap and water," Tom bubbled.
How do you know you have a good book?  It's 3am and you think "Just one more chapter!"

"I just can't seem to lose any weight," Tom said heavily.

"I just can't figure out the answer to number seventeen," Tom said testily.

"What kind of bird is that?" Tom chirped.
