Here's the Story! We're judging the contest now and will be announcing the winners shortly!
Nine men sat around a (1) Shape table. They were rich; rich enough to buy (2) number (3) object. And they were talking about how they could best make more money with their vast wealth.
The first man, who was the (4) adjective of the bunch, said he would buy a ship. "The (5) Adjective (6) Noun, I call her!" the (4) man said. "The ship will search for treasure! I?ll give the (7) Adjective treasure to a museum, and keep the rest for myself!"
"Balderdash!" the second man replied, laughing like a (8) Animal. "What a ludicrous idea! My idea is much more practical; I'll invest in a Bakery! 'The (9) Adjective Cake!' It'll be a niche establishment; we'll cater only to (10) Occupation, and advertise on (11) Name of TV Station, Magazine, or Website."
"Bah!" scoffed the third man, wearing a purple (12) Article of Clothing. "I won't have a Bakery, but a Restaurant! The Delectable (13) Noun. Fine dining! Strictly (14) Nationality cuisine! And we shall have a violin quartet serenade our patrons with (15) Musical Genre while they dine!"
"Hmm," interjected the fifth man, with a thoughtful gleam in his eye. "With so many restaurants opening, you'll need a food supplier, won't you? I'll open a Farm! We'll plant (16) Fruit or Vegetable seeds, and water them with (17) Liquid! Best darn farm, around, I'd say!"
"Boooooring!" the sixth man yelled, laughing. He was a confident man, having won all his money betting on (18) Sport or Game. "I want to be where the action is! I'll start a Nightclub, called (19) Noun, Adjective or Verb! We'll watch (20) Sport by day, dance to (21) Musical Genre by night, and play (22) card or board game after closing!"
"You all think too small," the seventh man said, combing his mustache that looked like a (23) hairy animal. "I'll invest in urban development, and grow cities. And from those cities, I shall grow Empires! We'll manufacture (24) Consumer Good, and export them to (25) Nation."
"You'll never have the capital to get started," said the eighth man, shrewdly. "I'd rather invest in something smaller scale, in the entertainment industry. Something that will make families happier than (26) Unfortunate Event. Like a Zoo! We?ll get a bunch of (27) Animal, and make them the focal point of our marketing campaign."
The ninth man remained quiet. He thought about the other men's ideas, and founded TeamLava.
