[Dan] All right. I think that wraps it up for this week. We're going to close with a writing prompt which Howard is going to give to us.
[Howard] Can I use blue Italian monkeys?
[Dan] [hesitantly] Yes...
[Howard] Okay. Your writing prompt comes to you from the AP style book... the fake AP style book. Something involving a blue Italian rocket-propelled monkey piloted dirtbike.
[Maniacal laughter]
[Dan] You're out of excuses, now go write.
