Comment from Lady & Louis
Hoo hoo, that's wicked, snodlander, and very clever! Pithy and has a real "ouch" factor, if that makes any sense.
Nothing to critique or suggest (one would hope not, in a six-word story)!
Best o'luck in the contest...

Thank you. I'm not sure she was so much hoping for good luck, more invalidating her own promise, but I shall pretend I deliberately put the ambiguity in.
Comment from perunest
Love it! I guess that's too short a review for here, but what can you say about a piece that's just six words long? I actually couldn't say anything in only six words, that's why i'm so impressed by the entries to this contest. Good luck to you! And I LOL at your profile comments about you and your motorcycle. I truly hope you were not hurt! But at 50 mph . . . ouch! Carolyn

I'm pretty much recovered now, thanks, though I spent the best part of a week in hospital. But I'm a man, I can take it (pained but brave look).
I'm glad you liked the entry. THanks for your review
Comment from x-ray
Hey Snod,
Bin awhile. Hope you're keepin' good.
This could pretty much be described as the 'standard' wedding vow of the latter 20th century, and this century too now, come to that. I keep forgetting that we've turned that corner.
Leaves it ambiguous enough that we're not sure if the fingers crossed are for her keeping her own vows, or that he'll keep his. With the girls these days, it's just as likely for her to be skipping of on the side as the fellas.
Could also be cynically interpreted, despite you disclaimer, I am a cynical sod, that the fingers crossed is so the vows won't 'count', like the kids do with their promises in the play-ground, so despite it's brevity it says a lot, once you stop to think about the permutations.
Cleverly phrased.
From you I'd expect nothing less, as always.
Best of luck with the contest, X.

Haha, I'd not thought of her hoping he meant his. It was the playground interpretation I was thinking of, though any marriage is, and always has been, subject to luck in choosing a soul that will still be twinned decades later.
Thanks for your kind words.

I foresee problems in the marriage. Funny line that speaks volumes. I like these little quips that are so witty. Best of luck in the competition. I expect this will be a strong entry. Ray
