Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Oh, Beth, this is fantastic! It made me laugh out loud, and I think that picture is perfect in its simplicity.
This one will probably also place in this contest; you really have a hot pend lately:-)
Good luck, and thanks for making me smile and laugh.

Thank you Pam. I'm so glad you like this. It is hard for me to anything into so few words. I delighted it made you laugh. By the way, I really hope you had a good birthday.

Comment from Lea Tonin1
Completely true, you could certainly get material out of your loved ones or you're significant other I have to lose. I'm a bit of a comedian myself. I understand these things..
My son would say mom I'm bored and I would say, son you're bored cuz you're boring, OK? That usually meant find something to do or I would find something for him l o l. Having said that, I find you're writing to be really well done. God, great subject matter one of my favorites and a cool picture too. Great submission hope you having awesome night

Lol! That's cute. The husband has confirmed the stand-up comedian's take on her husband's stinginess just by saying that he refuses to pay the ten dollars to listen to his wife's performance! Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Bill Schott
This dribble, She's Not Making It Up, has the proper word count and tells a joke that is a proof for the buildup to the punch line. I have a couple of cheap jokes too, but I'll spare you.

Comment from royowen
That's the trouble if your wife, (or husband) is a stand up comedian, they are likely to tell stories about you, heh heh, so you're right, there are a few good ones in Australia, their marriages would have to be strong, heh. Great job Beth, blessings Roy

Hahahaha. So he doesn't know what she says about him. Probably a good thing. I like his reasoning, but I bet after being told this, he'll pay the $10 to hear. At least once.

Thank you, Dolly. I'm so glad you find it funny. I was afraid I would be able to write anything that makes sense in so few words.

I had to read it three times before clarity came to be in regards to his cover charge. Duh. I never thought myself slow but I guess I had a senior moment ð??©

I understand. It is hard to say anything perfectly clearly when you've only got 50 words to work with. I have those senior moments all the time. I'm pleased that you got something from it on third try.
Comment from barbara.wilkey
LOL This contest entry was funny to read. I couldn't help but laugh. Yes, if he won't pay to listen to his wife's act, he is stingy. Thank you for sharing it with us. Good luck with the contest.

Thank you Debbie. I appreciate the review. It very hard to say anything that makes sense in just 50 words. If it worked for you, I'm happy.
