The radio station I listen to had a contest to write a six word story. I was way too busy trying not to flunk classes and I never remembered about it except when I was driving.
Anyway, your 6 word story is one of my favorites, because it is truly a story, and not just a little snippet of words that sound good together. I shall have to work on writing one of my own.
And I should probably email you.

Thanks, I'm glad you like. You should totally write one! And write me emails by all means; that is always good, as my story so eloquently illustrates. ;-P
