2. Our trip to H & M was interrupted by a ham who began to hum a hymn and, pulling at the hem of my skirt, begged me to take him home.  


3. Our meeting of the R & D department was interrupted by man rude enough to wave a red rod and insist that we read his pamphlet before going for a ride down the road.

2. Our trip to the fashion department store chain was interrupted by a scene-stealing over-actor who began to wordlessly intone the tune to a religious song and, pulling at the finished bottom edge of my skirt, begged me to take him to his residence.  


3. Our meeting of the fact-finding and prototyping department was interrupted by man impolite enough to wave a crimson staff and insist that we peruse his pamphlet before going for a journey on horseback down the highway.
