Would others like to try their skill at crafting a sentence that uses all of the words of the week, with at least syntactical correctness, if not enormous semantic significance?

Ages and ages ago, tsuwm (I think) wrote either a sentence or a paragraph wherein the first letter of every word began with the next letter of the alphabet.
