As I type this, a bulldozer is out there...outside my window. It is getting closer! It tears the earth, and roars its dischord! Today, our back alley is getting expanded and renovated. I didn't know people did that to alleys, but here we are.
So yeah, a good 12 feet is coming out of our backyard. No more bonfires.
It's getting even closer! Aiee, head for the hills!

Force feeding enough chocolate fudge sundae would kill anyone. Too much of a taste-bud explosion.

Bulldozer is an interesting word, no? I mean, they don't really "doze", do they? Unless they are on union break, I suppose. And are girly ones "cowdozers"?
But, apparently, the original "bulldozer" was a person who beat up black voters to prevent them from entering the polls. Why in the world did someone think that that was a good name to adopt for the construction vehicle?

Thank you for that interesting information Tante!
Now quickly! Put a pot on your head and maintain a defense perimeter! ;P Use a compass and ruler if you have trouble!

Pots for Helmets, trash can lid shields, and swords of the finest broomstickiene wood. We shall take to the walls and draw the line to defend the backyard kingdom from those vile mechanisians that wish to take it.
Who is ready to protect the laughter saved in those precious blades of grass! Who is ready to defend from the great corruption in the guise of uncontained progress! Let us slay the great Bull named Dozer, and send that warlord and his kin running to other pastures of dreams.
Load up the ice cream and mount the armored tricycles. Let us not give quarter to the dream slayers!

I'd have opted for "The word yellow wandered through his mind in search of something to connect with.", but either leads in a direction I approve of this thread taking!
