"...fill in the blanks with silly or even forbidden words."

As a celebration of last weekend's Adult Mammoth Party Girl Mad Libs ("World's Greatest Word Game"), and the subsequent discussion regarding the creative thought behind the development of these fascinating word plays ("Mom packed schlong sandwiches and wang salad..."), I thought I'd try to create my own version, which I decided to model on the Bush farewell address--call it a "sad lib." If you provide the missing words I'll post your very own presidential farewell address and we can compare whose speech more closely upholds the tradition of using a farewell speech to look forward by sharing thoughts on the country's challenges and what it will take to meet them.

Show your brilliance and give it a shot!
