Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Lukeman Exercise 3 | Corinn B. Sessions

At the end of the book in section three, Lukeman cautions us as writers not to use certain punctuation marks, and if we ever did for stylistic purposes, to use them rarely. I just want to see if I can actually write something using all of the "hands off" marks: the question mark? And the exclamation point! As well as italics....ellipsis...and the hyphen-mark. (I've already violated so many rules. It's fun!) Underline, [brackets], and bold were completely off limits! I'm not sure I can use them.

Well, I guess I already did that exercise. I bet I failed.
