OMG! there's so much i wanna say. in my creative writing class before, we talked about six-word stories! hemingway has one i think... or was it faulkner? basta it went something like baby shoes for sale blah blah blah? how to tell a story in six words. kasi daw it's the ECONOMY of words. the shorter the harder. very cool. very hard. only for brilliant writers!

I FOUND IT!

For sale: baby shoes, never worn.

Hemingway nga. Basta like... in those six words you know that the baby died at a young age.

hemingway, i believe! thats who they based this on. ugh only for the brilliant ones, indeed. sooo cool. my brother tried to evoke the same excitement by posting suggestions on his multiply, and of course it was followed by kagaguhan na 6 words each.

anyway, haha YES!! economics!!
talk is cheap because supply is greater than demand!!
