Funny. He made not have been a 'wise guy' but at least you made him keep his wise cracking attitude in the face of sudden death and a gun aimed at him. Well done.

That's a bad day! Smart decision to promote this so high because this is a fun story. I think you might have a winner with this one.

You know, I like your story. It has a very noir irony to it. thinks contests are hare to judge, because some people write their stories using the required words as punctuation, while other try to make the word unobtrusive.
Nice job.

Peace, Lee

Explosive story in 100 words, approximately. Well-written, full of suspense, with good narrative and dialogue. Thank you for sharing. Faye

Good story in the 100-150 word range. Also you had a good use of the contests required words, not forcing any of them into a sentence.
Best of luck in the contest...
John

SPAG Notes:

overindulgence, earlier - no comma needed

Wow. Wrong guy. He got it worse than the wrong Lebowski.

Good job packing in as much as you did within the 150 word limit. It was fun to read.
