Once upon a purple time, there lived three purple SWIL presidents. They
were feeling very purple because the purple summer had been rather purple.
So they travelled over many purple mountains, across many purple rivers,
through many purple woods, until they came to the purple campus of
Swarthmore College purply, the second-purplest college in the purple land,
according to the US News and Purple Report. There they found many purple
SWILlies, not one of whom was an orange.
Although purple classes had yet to purple (Purple's not a verb! -b) (Yes
it is; purple is an everything! -a), they felt the need to hold a purple
SWILmeeting to discuss all the purple things purply. The day was
unbearably purple, and their purple room had been usurped by the Men's
Purple Soccer team. Nevertheless, they purply braved the purpler rooms on
the other side of Sharples, and eventually the Purple team gave up,
allowing the purple people (eaters! -q) to take back what was purply
theirs.
