Hey guitar & penslingers

 

Here`s an intermediate writing exercise I thought might be useful-there was some comment recently about what to post here to get things going:

 

Complete this sentence-adjust for gender references as needed:

 

"This person actually had the nerve to come back after the guy/girl he/she left me for dumped him/her, saying it could still work out for us. That`s like-"

 

here`s a couple of mine:

 

"That`s like a hit-and-run driver backing up to finish the job."

 

"That`s like a guy in a ski mask saying he`s come th read your meter."

 

let the images fly!

Same old surprises, brand new cliches-

This is not an exact fit, but there's something about the concept of the heart-breaker missing the broken-hearted that reminds me of the joke about the hobo and his dog.

 

After years scrapping to survive, they are down to nothing. The hobo looks at his companion and realizes he has only one hope to avoid starvation. He makes a meal of the pooch. As he's finishing up, he sighs sadly, "I wish ol' Rex were here. He sure would've loved this bone."
