Do you even dare?

Hello everybody! It's time to have fun and get creative!

In 2004, French author Michel Thaler wrote a 233-page novel WITHOUT ANY VERB IN IT! Pretty amazing, huh? The book is called "The train from nowhere" and it is Thaler's proof to the ...
world that (in his own words) "the verb is like a weed in a field of flowers" and we all should get rid of it. So today's exercise is:

WRITE IN A COMMENT TO THE POST ON
MY PAGE A VERY SHORT PARAGRAPH (3 TO 6 PHRASES), DESCRIBING THE BEGINNING OF A PLANE VOYAGE WITHOUT USING ANY VERB AT ALL!

The paragraph should be to the point, clear, logic, understandable and funny! A commitee will select the best paragraph according to the number of "wow"s and "LOL"s gathered and the winner will be announced and publicly praised this week-end!

So put your brain wheels into motion and write away!
