Mad Libs for Rick Scott

Tonight Stephen read a gushy letter of support for Florida Governor Rick Scott. There was lots of good stuff about how good the good Governor is. Stephen's intention is to send it to all the newspapers in Florida. By doing so, he will be following the advice of the writer of the letter, Rick Scott. That's right, Governor Rick Scott wrote a letter praising Governor Rick Scott. And, what's more, Rick Scott posted it on his website so that you can go get it, sign your own name and send it to the newspapers of Florida so that the fine people of Florida know how good their good Governor is.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Stephen has also written a letter and posted it online, but his is more fun. So what you need to do now is get paper and pencil and write down the following:

An adjective
A verb
An adverb
A verb
An action verb
A noun
An interjection

Okay, now you can go to Colbert Nation and get Stephen's letter, fill in the blanks, and see what your letter says.Isn't this fun? It's just like a Mad Lib! Remember when you were young all the fun you would have with Mad Libs? Now you can enjoy that creative and wacky time again. And best part, Stephen even has the addresses for these Florida Newspapers:

Orlando Sentinel
The Florida Times-Union
Tallahassee Democrat
Tampa Tribune
TC Palm

If your letter doesn't make sense, you may need to change some of the adjectives, verbs, nouns, etc. so that it reads like a real letter. Start writing that letter and have yourself some real fun.
