Short Story
Wednesday, 27. September 2006, 13:23:21
I read an article the other day, that teachers are worried about a drastic lack of grammar and language-feeling amongst our kids by their intensive use of short-messages on cellphones.
They should not be worried too much, because I also read the following article:
A college class was told that they had to write a short story in as few words as possible.
The instructions were:
The short story had to contain the following three things:
-Religion
-Sexuality
-Mystery
And here is the shortest story of the entire class (graded A+) :
“Good God, I’m pregnant – I wonder who did it.”

Loved that story - any more?
PS: sorry I'm late in commenting. I was away in Spain for a few weeks and I got back a few days ago, so I will do a 'catch up' on all my friends.
