Read one statement at a time, close your eyes, then fill in the blanks with the first thing that comes to mind.  Once you have completed the sentences, copy and paste them into the comments.  DO NOT spoil it for yourself by reading other people's answers first - it's WAY more fun to compare afterwards!  Have fun!
