really nothing like Stanley Unwin, Matt.

Story was inspired by unwords instead.

After the 3 periods substitute teaching a French III class where the only resource left by teacher was word search puzzle full of French words. In the 1st period I found the French words. In the 2nd period I found some English words. In the 3rd period I started seeing potentially funny unwords. Jeeklurp was the first and I thought what a funny word. What can it mean? So I defined it. A cool refreshing treat made with goat yogurt and fruit of the Jeek tree. Jeek tree is descended or cultivated from the wild Yatzoming, which used to grow on the Anteswertian plain until the Rudinoceri (or so it was erroneously reported) ate them all. Actually human cultivation changed the Yatzoming and the Rudinoceri went away. The goats were afraid because Thwartin had suddenly grown a beard. A thing not seen on the people of Anteswert. But the beard growing only happened to the Flendroplian males and not the Yulmopians which eventually caused great battles between these once friendly people.   

I just couldn't help myself.. several stories were born out of this exercise.

All I can say is beware of word search puzzles. That way danger lies.
