Woo hoo! I have completed my task... now can I become a true ninja?
One interesting word I never new before for every letter of the english alphabet.This endeavor has definately given me lots of ideas and inspiration, and i think it's actually made me increasingly interested in language in general. I have some ideas... i think that there's a better way for foreign languages to be taught in schools, at least in my experiences.
And now, for a quite long, nonsensical (balderdash, if i may say so)story using all these words!

THE TALES OF SIR PASSIMBYE
There once was a lachrymose raconteur,
He traveled the lands telling tales of mourn
Known by the name of Sir Passimbye
Never here nor there long, he would sigh and cry
Like a midnight zephyr, creak on by
And moan past your home, muttering omens to the sky
Yet when he did pause in his vacillating ways
To reside in your town for a couple of days
People far and wide would come to hark
Passimbye's accounts of the tragic and dark
Younkers and elders and in betweens alike
Even the most dry of xerophytes
Would have to admit to losing some water
When Passimbye told of "the executrix's daughter"
Oh, what a woeful thing to be dreaded,
to hear how she had her own daughter beheaded!
But if perhaps blood and gore isn't your style
Heed "The curse of the poor oenophile"
It's wretched but true, when we went for a loan
The bank teller wriggled her fingers and nose
And "Alacazam!" had his tongue turned to stone
So if when you go
To your local bank
The teller begins to cackle and laugh
and emit fumes of foul and rank, of stewed toads and souffled rats
