I wrote this years and years ago:

on theAnswerToEverything
   put "Why do I keep wasting time" \
       & "striving for a script in rhyme?" \
       into query
   wait 2 ticks
   put "'Cause you're stupid" into x

   get word 1 of "What's my line" && \
       word 1 of "the summertime" && \
       word 4 of "what do you mean" && \
       word 1 of "life is a dream."

   put "i" & "n" & "g" & " of" \
       after word 3 of it -- above
   put 6 * 7 into reckoned
   answer it
   wait one second
   put "You can run this script all day."
   answer reckoned with "Okay"
end theAnswerToEverything
