Sentence: When we stepped into the lobby at the Kooks Museum,my friend Jeff was immediately BOGUSMITTEN by the exhibits. The next day, all our co-workerers were there, fawning over the incredible assortment of weirdos, whackos and dingbats- some of whom bore an uncanny resemblance to our boss,the maniacal, illiterate and deeply disturbed library director. Seems everyone was BOGUSMITTEN by the museum...except "Mad Pat"!
