[It's up to the first poster to come up with a set up, and then each following post will either complete it or fill in the blank(s). And, as always, whoever posts the set up is certainly allowed to post their own completion/fill in as a follow up.]

[Lydia]

Setup:

Barnabas was quite vexed to hear that while he had been staying at Collinwood, down at the Old House Willie had...

...Willie had been partying with a blow-up doll dressed as Maggie!

...Willie had been partying with a blow-up doll dressed as Maggie!

Barnabas just doesn't like to share.   And Willie never returns Barnabas's things in their original condition.

[Sara Monster]

"taken Barnabas's coat & cane & was masquerading downtown as him."

"burned down 3 rooms, allowed Buzz's biker gang to crash there for a week, & had replaced all the furniture with beanbag chairs."

"been secretly earning extra cash renting out rooms to hippies."

",together with Harry Johnson, attempted to return to a life of crime by producing knock-off Troll dolls."

"broken Barnaba's spare coffin while trying to ride it down the stairs."

"was holding neighborhood children hostage in the basement dungeon rooms for making fun of him."

"installed electricity by running about 50 extension cords from Collinwood to the Old House."

"developed a backbone & a sense of independence & was now looking into outside work & getting a place of his own."

All your fill-ins were funny, but I was over this one:

"broken Barnaba's spare coffin while trying to ride it down the stairs."

(Maybe it's the fact that when I was a kid I used to ride in coffins down a conveyor belt. And before that sounds just too bizarre to be true, I have to explain that I was friends with the son of a man whose neighborhood business was manufacturing coffins. It's a long story.  )

I respect you even more now.  And I don't know why you felt you had to explain it...!
