Mischief
Mango
Mangle
Martyr
As he approached he saw a "mangle" of "mango" in the beauty's hair. It was a "mystery" as to who caused this sort of "mischief". He tried to convince her not to be a "martyr" and go to a hair stylist immediately.Police
Seething
Tracfones
Zipper
Stuck
Nearby, the "police" were "seething" over a dude with a coat full of "Tracfones" who appeared to have his "zipper" "stuck", no, not that one, get your mind out of the gutter.Sing
Snort
S'mores
Soulful
Sanitary
The "sanitary“ conditions were not good enough to make "soulful" S'mores". It made no difference if you decided to "sing" or “snort“ the health department will not let you cook in that kitchen.King
Maybe
Localized
Perfect
Aisle
All the KING wanted was a PERFECT S'mores; he didn't feel that was a lot to want. MAYBE after all this he will decide to walk down the AISLE and keep his wants more LOCALIZED.dog
rabies
stable
huntsman
fox
But back to the story line of Mr 'Fox' on the prowl for a 'stable' relationship, just like a 'huntsman' zeroing in on game, or a 'dog' with 'rabies' for that matter.Babe-alicious
Bodacious
Bath
Burp
Bingo
Maybe Mr. Fox will find a babe at the local "bingo" center, but he needed to take a "bath" first...He was looking for a "babe-alicious" and "bodacious" lady. All the bath bubbles made him "burp".ribbon
tie
hair
hungry
bear
He was “hungry" as a "bear" just coming out of hibernation. After his bath, he put on his best suit with the new "ribbon“ "tie" He was hoping to find a beautiful woman with long "hair" below her bum.Last
Delight
Professor
Yahoo
Last night I met up with some old friend's for a few drinks. Some of us had met up again via Facebook and decided to find as many others as we could via Facebook and any other method as we could by comparing our yahoo address books and basically doing some 'wildcard' searches on google. Our old boss, we used to call him the professor, but that is another, really long story (for another time) turned up as well as his former boss. We had the best night and I'm not going to spoil this recollection by detailing the not so memorable gaps I had missed in my friends lives by not keeping better contact with them.Sufficie to stay, no one was in bed before 5 this morning, and there were a few sore heads at breakfast. That said I don't think we will leave it so long again to meet up. The few of us girls that were closest are already talking of meeting during the summer. Fingers crossed it happens.
Okay, but since we're supposed to advance the story, not create a new one, let's "follow" our fella in his spiffy bachelor "pad", away from his "mother", where the "lamp" is covered with gauzy material like he saw on some cheap film, and his walking "stick" is at the ready to give him a debonair air.....ranch
ribald
ridiculous
rancid
return
With no luck in finding a babe at the local bingo hall, Mr. Fox decided to "return" to his small "ranch" home. What is that "rancid" smell he stated to himself. It could be my "ribald" cousin cooking possum on the grill. Possum with hot sauce may seem "ridiculous" but tastes mighty good.why
what
waffle
candle
wind
"Why" would you have grilled possum without "waffles" to sop up the juice? "What" is with the "candle" on the picnic table? Are you expecting the "wind" to blow in a date?Call
Dunce
Enlarge
Fluency
Gregarious
Feeling frustrated with his lack of success he decided to "call" his "dunce" of cousin to teach him "fluency" in babeosity. Darrell (the dunce) who was so lame that he once tried to "enlarge" his vocabulary by roasting and eating a dictionary, did at least have a "gregarious" personality and could always talk to girlssquirrel
natural
luck
serious
violin
Of course, he was a "natural" with the ladies, given his pet "squirrel" with the "serious" "violin" skills (the squirrel, not the Dunce), but as "luck" would have it, the squirrel was down with the flu.shingle
sheriff
surefire
sorority
sample
The squirrel started squeaking out loud tunes on his violin while the "sorority" girls next door were trying to catch some z's. The "sheriff" was called and shined his "surefire" flashlight into Mr. squirrel's face. In the meantime, the clumsy sheriff accidentally discharged a bullet hitting a "shingle" on the roof. If you leave me alone stated Mr. Squirrel to the sheriff I will give you a "sample" of my grilled possum.knife
blood
fear
eyes
tasty
That wasn't "fear" in the eyes of the sheriff, oh no, those were "eyes" on the "tasty" morsels of possum, without regard to the nearby "knife" dripping with fresh "blood" from the recent skinning of the road pizza possum.pepperoni
portion
party
pastels
plink
Since it was Easter, a "portion" of road kill pizza even with "pepperoni" was not appropriate. "Pastels" and a "party" were more what sheriff had in mind. Maybe even a "plink" of the glasses to start the party off. Water
Port
Neighbor
Warble

The "neighbor" who wandered over and invited himself, asked with a "warble" in his voice whether there was any "port" to be had instead of "water", something about water-into-wine in a "disposable" plastic cup.Foie gras
Frog
Fantasy
Ferocious
Finger
The neighbor drank down the water wine combination discovering a "finger" and a tiny "frog" in the bottom of his cup. Who would do such a "ferocious" thing? Was this just a "fantasy"?? Mr. Fox offered him a "foie gras".crazy
violent
escape
red
throw
Was the neighbor "crazy"? "Violent"? Did he "escape" from prison? If Mr. Fox started seeing "red", he planned to "throw" the hot foie gras at the neighbor to stun him and then cook him right up with the road kill pizza.DISTURBED
T was "disturbed" by all the craziness and forgot to add four more words...or else her computer had a virus or did she get sick from eating too much foie gras??

disturbed
distorted
disgruntled
discombobulated
disaster
Yes, indeed, the neighbor was extremely "disturbed" and reality became "distorted", however, he was never too "disgruntled". An unexpected "disaster" would not raise his blood pressure, although he could become discombobulated during dangerous events.words
explain

tums
mouthwash
After finishing the finger and the frog, the neighbour washed down a handful of "tums" with "mouthwash". "Words" could not "explain" how "shocked" the entire party was at his bizarre actions. He turned to the group and said, "What?" "We eat frogs legs don't we?"suspicious
kind
cranky
beautiful
generous
Mr Fox was somewhat "suspicious" of the "cranky" neighbor, but being the "kind" and "generous" fella that he is, albeit desperately in search of a "beautiful" mate, he decided to give the neighbor the benefit of the doubt - perhaps it was hunger pains that made him so odd.luscious
lascivious
lazy
lilting
language
After a "lilting" ring tone rang on Mr. Fox's cell phone, he answered it. It was his old "lascivious" and "luscious" girl friend from many many years ago.

blood
house
fear
fight
His ex thought it would be a great idea to live in a "glass" "house", which is what caused the "fight" to begin with. His "fear" was that she would want to be his girlfriend again. That thought made his "blood" run cold.Board
Look
Zimbabwe
Despite
Ywca
One "look" at his old "Zimbabwe" ex-girlfriend made Mr. Fox feel sick. "Despite" the fact that she was rich, he didn't want to be her friend any more. She was staying at the "YWCA" for the time being and was the chair person for the school "board". loud
TV
swimming
bleach
bugs
She was "swimming" in the pool at the Y when someone poured "bleach" in the water. She was told it was to kill all the "bugs" in the pool. On her way back to her room she heard a "loud" "TV" with a breaking news report. Longer
Guesthouse
Bonus
Pistol
Disposition
After the x-girlfriend left the pool, she put some bleach into a water "pistol". Her "disposition" was a little better but she could no "longer" stand the fact that the "guesthouse" floor was covered with blood stains and mud. Using the water pistol she sprayed the blood with clorox bleach.Maybe we will have a "bonus" round since not many people seem to be playing the five letter game...
funny
how
surprised
money
smell
It is "funny" "how" the "smell" of stolen "money" masks the smell of blood and bleach. Mr. Fox's friend was "surprised" when Zimbabwe and her partner in crime busted in the door and shot him.Icy
Confidence
Free
Clear
Expert
A stranger mysteriously appeared in the room, not lacking in "confidence" since he was an "expert" on helping people who were shot. He wrapped a rubber band around Mr. Fox's arm and the bleeding stopped. His arm felt "icy" but it was "clear" to him that he was not going to die. Mr. Fox felt like a "free" bird.gun
blood
where
when
who
"Who" could have shot the "gun"? Where did all the "blood" come from? When did this all happen? To say the least he was very confused. Organization
Bowl
Band
Lower
Water
With a little "organization" to ease the confusion, a "bowl" of warm "water" was used to clean up the bloody around the rubber "band" and Mr Fox's "lower" extremities - but not THERE, get your mind out of the gutter!Stupendous
Smarty pants
Singleton
Snobbery
Snickerdoodle
OK "Smarty pants", no need for "snobbery". Although we still aren't sure where the bloody rubber band was,Mr. Fox was feeling well enough to make a "stupendous""snickerdoodle". Just then Detective "Singleton" knocked on the door.INFORMATION
PROBABLY
WATCH
GENERALLY
DESPITE
The silly detective was "probably" looking for "information", "despite" being quite late for his appointment with his psychiatrist, according to his "watch" which was "generally" set to a timezone ahead.Puddle

Panic
Val, not paying any attention to the story and feeling pensive and perturbed, decided to make popcorn and not get into a panic or a puddle of tears.direction

slather
slaughter
stink
stupendous
Luckily Val, "slathered" in "stupendous" anti-thug repellant, still had her famous "smack" and put up a real "stink" so the stranger had to slither away and "slaughter" some other poor person in a "stupendous" act of hostility.childlike
television
keyboard
love
blueberries
In a childlike muse, April skipped into the room. "Where is the party?" she purred. "I thought I heard a pistol shot, or was that the television?" she mewed with oozing innocence in her melodious voice. Val, wondering about thinking that a gunshot meant a party to this gal with an odd calico jacket, said "can I offer you blueberries?" April blinked slowly. "No party?" Noticing blood stains on the floor, she went to her hands and knees to peer closely at the marks. "Ooooooh, it looks like a keyboard! Is this, like, a Rorschach picture?" Pulling her purse open, she pulled out a wine bottle and took a swig. A gun tumbled to the ground. "Oooops!" She hiccuped. "No worries! It's all love!"Cock-eyed
Curdled
Crane
Coped
Crater
An underground "crater" began swallowing the house where the party was taking place. Ben, the "cock-eyed" "crane" operator was hired to demolish the building with his "crane". Blood in his veins "curdled" as he started the engine and "coped" joints in the house began to crumble. Val and April fled the scene.tired
