raisin to Caradhras to window to dictionary

Heh, heh, heh. Goody.

A raisin used to be a grape, grapes are purple (and red and green and black, but that is beside the point), the color of royalty is purple, royal people are sometimes stuck up, Aragorn was royal, he was NOT stuck up, neither am I, I am not royal, royal people have a lot to do, so do I, one of my jobs is washing dishes (yech!), washing dishes requires water, snow is made of water, there was a lot of snow on Caradhras, Caradhras was a mountain, mountains are tall, trees are tall, wood comes from trees, some houses are made of wood, houses have windows, windows are made of glass, glass is ridiculously easy to break, so are bones, bones keep you from flopping over (no idea where that came from...), paper flops over, paper is for writing on, writing is made up of words, words are made up of letters, letters can stand for things, letters that stand for things are called abbreviations, those make taking notes easier, people take notes at school, school is out for the summer, summertime is fun, swimming is fun, swimming requires water, water is wet, my hair is currently wet, my hair is not long, this round-about is long, this game is interesting, that thing that you call the study of word origins is interesting, whatever you call that thing is a good thing to learn, learning is good, you learn at school, one of the ways you learn at school is by way of a dictionary.

Bother. Only 13 lines.
