Sentence: The Man with the yellow hat was downhearted since his clever pet monkey had run off to join the circus. He had searched in vain for him and finally decided to replace his pet with another. He craved the attention his pet brought into his life. Since no monkeys were available, he settled for a pet goat and called him George. He bragged to his friends that this George could also swing from trees, eat bananas and get into mischief. Of course everyone knew that this critter was a spuriousforge... because goats are baaaahhhhd at climbing trees!

Etymology: spurious (plausible but false,intended to deceive) & forge (make a copy of with the intent to deceive) & Curious George (the curious little monkey)
