All this month, Elena over at Your Write. Except when your Rong, is holding contest wherein you must write a 100 word sentence in the hopes of winning $100. The amount of the prize depends on the number of participants, so write your monster sentence and join in! And so, without further ado, I offer you my effort at a remotely coherent one hundred word sentence. Take a deep breath. Go.
