This is a great challenge - trying to tell a story in only 60 words or less. (But not for me!) Good job getting a basic story to fit in such a cramped space. Good luck in the contest.

Well, I guess the cigar aficionados won't like the idea of arresting mom for her smokes, but those who have to inhale the stench will. An interesting entry for the contest. Marilyn

Funny sorry! I enjoyed the humor. I found two things for your consideration.
"Yes sir, your mother was arrested." --Suggest a comma before sir as well.
took the cigar--Suggest using a different word for cigar. Maybe blunt or joint?
Good luck in the contest,
Russell

HA! Loved it. And the picture went great with the DASH! Humor is a gift of the universe! You my friend did a fine job with this, but, I'm a little bent that way, so if you've tickled the universe to make me smile...sixers all around!

I'm not sure how to take the ending - is it 'great' with a '!' - or 'oh great, mom's at it again:(' - lol.
Anyway a great short story for the contest.

LOL, Mom's at it again. Thanks for reading.

This sixty-word story, Delinquent Mom, has the appropriate word count and creates the hilarious scene of a crusty, old mom with a 'fatty' getting pinched by the Miami coppers. Nice.

Dear friend,
This is one of the best 60-word dashes I think I've read. I don't know where you came up with that picture, but it's priceless! Much good luck in the voting!

NICE job!! Sixty words or fewer--that's a tough go. You pulled it off beautifully. I'm properly impressed.
I've seen this photo and know absolutely nothing about it. It is always used in memes, so it's been used to illustrate many ideas.
Good luck in the contest.

This speaks shocking, great news that author is informed of his mom's arrest by Miami Dade Police on charge of smoking a cigar and she did not care warning by police; I liked.
