For those who like to tell stories. The idea is to take a given sentence and use it as the opening to a story that you write - but your story must be fifty words or less (not including the original sentence).

The sun rises every morning.

At least, that's what they tell me. I wouldn't know; living in underground tunnels has taken that away from me.

The sun - it's a big shiny thing in the sky, right? We have something like that down here. It's called a stadium lamp. They shut it off at 8 pm.

It was a false leg, of course.

We never could figure out why he was the best smuggler on the continent. Not until that fateful day; when Customs tells you to drop trou, you do it. He did it.

His leg fell off. And that's the end of the smuggling problem.

It was a good day, it was a wonderful day, it was the best day.

Those were the answers I gave the cops about her.
It was a good day when we met and a wonderful day when she said, "Yes."
But it was the best day when she left, with the murderer.

I can now get paid to kill two birds with one stone.

"I aint no man shhhhugar", Ivy slurred. "And, if I were you I’d move my asshhh bef…” But it was all too late.

"Hello Betshhhy", Ivy sighed, as she slung an arm around the pink elephant and tried to ignore the green stain on the pavement where the leprechaun had been.

Whatever happened to that? We used to have fun doing those things as a child. I guess we grew up. Whatever happened to just being silly?

The times of childhood on Halloween have come and gone. Now it's time to move on. The memories have faded in and out.

As we get older, we remember....

All the mistakes that we made in life. We try to teach the younger generation to not make the same mistakes and to live life to it's fullest.

Youth is wasted on the young!

Boy, isn't that philosophical!

Everyone hates something, whether it's taxes, the president, a neighbor, or the look of your butt.

Yeah, well, hate the look of your butt, too...

The whole shop froze. Never mind a pin, you could have heard dust drop.

The girl was shaking, fists clenched. “And your perfume makes you smell like a prostitute, and daddy thinks so too, and I’ll never ever let him marry you!”

She burst into tears and ran out.

Never mind that vaudeville died a hundred years ago. He was going to bring it back, that marvellous show biz way of life!

Until he found out that the penguin was having an affair with both dogs, and his agent was looking up recipes for penguin stew.

It was over.
