Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Watch other roasts for inspiration. Think about odd habits or quirks. Recall notable memories. Stretch the truth, but don't ignore it. Get information from other people. State the obvious.

Answer: If you don't have much experience with roasts, take some time to do research. Watch roasts of other people and figure out the techniques people use to get the most laughs. You can find roasts of celebrities on comedy channels or on the internet. Keep in mind that professional roasts may go a bit farther than you should, depending on your situation. For instance, if you're roasting your boss, you may need to tone it down a lot. Write down anything the person does that's a bit crazy or silly. Maybe the person has a habit of only eating food on separate plates or only getting in the elevator if there are fewer than five people on it. These little habits can be great for filling out a roast. For example, if the person you're roasting loves peanut butter and bologna sandwiches, that's a little outside of the norm and people may find it funny. However, if the person likes to send mean messages to people, that's not as fun. It goes against the norm, but it also causes emotional harm to people. Another good source for a roast is interesting interactions you've had with the person. Everyone has days where they're a little off, and how that person acted on an "off" day could be a source for a roast. Alternatively, if you have any memories where the person did something truly goofy, that could be a great story for a roast. For instance, maybe a person jumped into the pool (fully clothed) at an office party to save a box of donuts. You could use that to tease the person a bit. Often, the roast jokes that get the most laughs have an element of truth in them, but don't cross the line into being outright mean. For instance, you might turn a mention of the one pair of pants that Joe wears to work that are just a bit too short into a riff on his Steve Urkel-esque fashion sense. But don't just attack the person's sense of style without any context, or berate them for wearing clothes that make them look fat. If you're having trouble coming up with enough material on your own, feel free to ask other people if they have anything they'd like to add. You may find they contribute something you'd never have thought of, making the roast that much richer. You could also use stories that have gone around in your social group over the years. For instance, maybe the person is notorious for always burning dinner when guests come over, and so it's joked about in your group: "Everyone knows Joe's misadventures around the grill. So when he invites me over for a cookout, I skip a step and bring the fire department with me. OK, honestly I just make up an excuse and get take-out instead. There's really no punchline here. Joe's just a terrible, terrible cook." Don't drive yourself crazy looking for obscure joke topics. Focus first on things that everyone who even barely knows the person being roasted will quickly recognize. Is the person really tall? Do they have a shockingly deep voice? Are they bald? As long as it's something you know they can laugh about, aim several of your jokes at this kind of easy target. Is the person getting old?: "Larry doesn't need to go to the theater to see 'The Mummy'. He was there when they wrapped and buried it." Is the person bad with technology?: "Larry is a decent nurse, but terrible with computers. He's introduced more viruses into the office than the patients have." Is the person a spendthrift?: "Larry's so cheap, the shops in town all had to change the notes on the change dishes by their cash registers to read 'take a penny, LEAVE A PENNY LARRY!'

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Go to the Dropbox login page and log in using the email and password associated with your Dropbox account. Select any folder within the Dropbox file viewer and click the "Shared folder options" tab from the top of the Dropbox file viewer. A "Shared folder options" window will appear displaying the members of the folder.

Answer: If the folder is a private, you will be the only member listed. Private folders on your computer will generally have an icon the same as any regular folder on your hard drive and function the same way. When creating a new folder in the Dropbox file browser it is automatically private. If you don't invite others to share the folder it will remain private.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Clean everything. Pasteurize the milk, if necessary. Dilute the calcium chloride. Dilute the rennet.

Answer: Sanitize all the cooking utensils by submerging them in boiling water for several minutes. Dry well with clean paper towels before continuing. You'll need to maintain a healthy, controlled balance of bacteria when making cheese curds, and that balance could be upset if unsanitary cooking utensils introduce additional bacteria to the ingredients. You don't need to pasteurize the milk if you're already starting with commercially pasteurized dairy, but you should do so if you start with raw milk. Note that both cow's milk and goat's milk can be used for cheese curds. To pasteurize milk, heat the milk to 161 degrees Fahrenheit (71.6 degrees Celsius) using a double boiler. Maintain this temperature for 30 minutes, then cool the milk in an ice bath until it reaches 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 degrees Celsius). Add 1/2 tsp (1.25 ml) of 30% calcium chloride to 1/8 cup (30 ml) of cool, non-chlorinated water. Stir until well-combined. Even though the calcium chloride is already diluted, diluting it further can extend its volume and allow it to spread more evenly throughout the milk. In a separate dish, combine 1/2 tsp (1.25 ml) ml of single-strength liquid rennet with 1/4 cup (60 ml) of cool, non-chlorinated water. Stir until well-combined. Note that you can use 1/2 rennet tablet instead of the liquid rennet. Crush the tablet before adding the water, then stir until dissolved.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Commit to lists and planners. Sync your information. Color-code everything. Clean up your inbox. Be consistent. Save paper and time. Stock up on supplies.

Answer:
Keep a planner, calendar, and to-do list and update them consistently. Keep them in easily seen and reached places, or have multiple that can be synced together. If you work well with pen and paper, keep a small planner or calendar that can fit in your pocket or purse so you always have it with you. Keep a pen attached if possible so you never have to fish around for one. Have a designated note pad for to-do lists at your desk, and cross things off as you go. If you work better with digital organization, use your phone's calendar and reminder system to make appointments and receive notifications about them. Try apps like Wunderlist or Todoist to manage your tasks. Make sure you always have notes and other materials with you by syncing calendars, lists, and files across all your devices, which nearly every modern app has the capability to do. Share tasks, documents, and notes with other secretaries, your boss, or other employees with project management software like Basecamp or Trello. Share documents and spreadsheets with Google Docs and use programs like Dropbox or Hightail to send files. Set up a color-coding system to help categorize all of your materials at a glance. Assign a color to each project, day, employee, or any way you want to delineate your work. Use highlighters and colored tabs or labels to mark up files, trays, and notebooks to easily locate the right information. Many web and mobile apps for email, calendars, and lists also allow you to assign a color to each item. Keep your email inbox clean and important information easy to access by filing an email into a folder right away, flagging or marking it as unread if you need to come back to it, or archiving or deleting it if you're sure you no longer need it. Try making folders for each year, quarter, or month, or label them by project, employee, or type. Try to respond to, delete, or log the email's information elsewhere right away. Set schedules for yourself, like having all emails filed in appropriate folders by the end of the day, and cleaning out and dealing with everything left in your inbox by the end of the week. Keep materials of the same type in a particular place, and designate notebooks and folders to specific projects. Have a specific notepad for phone memos, for example, that always stays by the phone so you never end up taking down someone's name and number on a napkin. Keep meeting notes in a separate place from other notes so information doesn't get mixed up and hard to find later. Avoid printing to save paper and opt for online forms or other documents so you can save time and resources. Fill out forms electronically if possible. Scan and save copies of paper files so they're always available and don't get damaged or lost. Circulate digital files, reminders, memos, and agendas instead of paper versions whenever possible. Never run out of important materials you use to be organized, like notepads, pens, envelopes, and stamps by buying or letting an office manager/purchaser know when you are on your last box or container of something rather than once they are all gone. Order supplies in bulk from a company like Quill to save money and avoid running out so quickly. Keep supplies organized at your desk or workspace. Use containers, trays, file folders, and other containers that are all labeled or colored for easy sorting.
