This isn't an official entry (as I had already posted it on ATS before) but I thought that it might fit in with the theme and maybe give the thread a wee bump in the process?

A PUNDERFUL ENCOUNTER

cheers, and the best of luck to all of the entrants!

My humble submission...

It is a little long for a short story but it got away from me.

Well, but....define short story

In school, I remember some were pretty short, others not so, I really like longer works

A short story for me is less than 10 pages.

But if it is humor, it either needs to be funny the whole way through or just get to the damn punchline already!!!

I'll try another entry.

Getting closer to the end of the contest.
I know there's not much to laugh or smile about these days.....but laughter is often the BEST medicine.

So, if anyone is up to the challenge, there is still time!!!

I'm working on a story, but have a dilemma. Some may view it as political. Some members like the short story area to be politics free.

When I described the story outline and the "hitch" to my daughter she said that putting it here would be like trolling. I don't want to be a troll. I can just as easily post it to the JOKE sub-forum, or just keep the laughs to myself.

The whole story is sitting in my head, not yet typed out completely. Should take me about two hours. I will check back here before posting to see if there is any feed back to this post.

ETA

I finished it. Proof reading now. About 15 minutes. Any objections speak now, or ...
