Re: Extremely Short Stories for those of you with Extremely Short Attention Spans
Jill answered the knock on the door. A seedy little man with a cheap suit was waiting patiently on her doorstep with a tattered briefcase.
"Hello, I am Arnold Armbuster and I am pleased to announce you have won the Grand Prize Giveaway Thingy. May I come in?"
Wary of similar home invasion burglaries in her neighborhood, Jill was prepared. "Do come in Mr. Armbuster."
The seedy little man entered her doorway and Jill reached behind the door and took out her aluminum baseball bat, raised it over her head and bashed in Mr. Armbuster's head.
Two weeks later, Jill received a check in the mail for $20,000 from the Grand Prize Giveaway Thingy.
The end.
