Thomas L. Friedman column (circle your choices):
The other day I (had lunch with/was thinking about/was skiing with/saw) (King Abdullah/Henry Kissinger/a homeless man/ a fuzzy bunny) and he was (talking policy/eating an eggroll/wearing a tam o’shanter).
Suddenly I (realized/discovered/remembered/imagined) that (the Bush Administration/Barack Obama/the economy/the entire history of mankind) could be (explained/wiped out/summarized) by (a childish scribble on a napkin/a billboard in the background/drinking heavily).
See? It's so easy a child could do it!

This is no good. Each parantheses set has to have four options or my stagger displacement method slips a gear and you end up with repeat endings! You never get a chance to end with drinking heavily.
Admittedly it's not perfect, but if you're a regular reader of Friedman's self-centered, overly obvious drivel, you will realize that my method is not much worse than his.
I will work a little more carefully next time. I am working up a Write Your Own Maureen Dowd.
Dude, seriously. Quit circling the issue and do Krauthammer.
I don't know if I am grumpy enough for that. I'll work on it.
