Lila and Doc << home >> it lies!
The last known sighting of a dunkleosteus in Ohio occurred in 1953 just outside of Sandusky, when the mayor, attempting to present the beast with the key to the city, instead ended up donating his arm, the state fire marshall, three lamp posts, half of the local high school band (mostly tubas and trombones), and a very nice derby hat, which in the mayor’s surprise turn of events, fell off of his head and rolled into Lake Erie.
how can this jewel of a sentence have provoked no comment??
Like the dunkleosteus, some sentences simply lie in wait.
But I think you’re right, and not just because I wrote the sentence. How can anyone resist a sentence involving a derby?
