Flash Fiction and Short-Short Fiction

[bcomet]

(Ryan inspired this topic, siting the NPR, 3 minute story sessions currently occurring.)

Here is a place for those short-short or flash fiction stories, under 1100 words, just to share. (Not for critique, but to get a feel for some of the writers here on this forum.) A place to get a sense of the writers amongst us. "Quick-Bite Stories!"
I know I will read with interest any that are posted here.

NPR is about to host its 4th round of 600 word flash fiction.
It's way fun.
