"The Merry Minuet"

"The Merry Minuet" is a great tune, Max! "An' I dun't like enybuddy very much!" said Tom, whistling unsociably.

A few more "Swifties" since I missed 'em the first go-round:

I hate the Arctic, Tom stated coldly.
Like a cold day in hell, Tom jeered ambiguously.
I graduated cum laude, Tom boasted smartly.
We survived the hurricane, Tom gasped windily.
I'm grasping for straws, Tom said while tending bar... So I'm signing off till I have something better than straws to offer!--Tom said withdrawingly.

I got this and wanted to share-- I thought of putting it in with shaggy dogs-- but thought it was better here...

Recent reports indicate the Japanese banking crisis shows no signs of· improving.

following last week's news that Origami Banks has folded, it was learned today that Sumo Bank has gone belly up.

Bonsai Bank plans to cut some of its branches, and Karaoke Bank is up for sale and is going for a song.

Meanwhile, shares in Kamikaze Bank have nose-dived and 500 jobs at Karate Bank will be chopped.

Analysts report there is something fishy going on at Sushi bank and staff there fear they may be getting a raw deal."

Someone metntioned this, but I neglected to obtain a copy of it. Can any one of you technically-skilled types furnish a copy, a link or a keyword? TIA

"My rooster crows every morning," said Tom cockily.
"I can teach you to play the piano," said Tom grandly.
"I never believed in magic spells," said Tom charmingly.
"Someone stole my camera," said Tom candidly.
"I have to make a phone call," said Tom crankily.
"Let's play one more round of cards," said Tom wistfully.
"It's too big to fit through the door," said Tom awkwardly.
"I have darjeeling or earl grey," said Tom teasingly.
"Mulled wine helps me sleep," said Tom groggily.

"I can't think of anything to say," said Tom wordlessly.
