Well, that ending was unexpected--which is a good thing. I enjoyed your short, as required, little story. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Jan

Many thanks.
Comment from Gloria ....
LOL, this is terrific and I got a real big laugh from the surprise ending. I'll bet the cook did finish off a few folks.
This is just so much fun and very well done. Wishing you much luck in the booth. :)

Comment from Mrs. KT
Fine humor, Mystery Writer!
And that is no easy task in a 60-word story.
If I may point out to you two nits:
College = college
were'nt = weren't
Best Wishes!

Comment from Earl Corp
That is an excellent story with a good twist. This is almost like a joke I've heard. I think this is probably the best 60 word flash fiction I've ever read.

Comment from gsuarez
HA, HA, HA, so appropriate for me at this time. We just celebrated my Father-In- Law's 99th Birthday; he was a veteran of WWII and the Korean War. Like all Vets he always refused to talk about his days in combat. His responses were always veiled in clever humor... " I was the cook." CHOICE!

Comment from poetwatch
Now this is hitting below the belt, my friend. :) Yet, what a question to ask a veteran to reply to. I glad you had the flair to write this and bring a smile to everyone's face. This is a good entry for the 60 Word Dash contest. Thank you for making me smile. Your food was Ok I came back. Thank you.

This is a good story. I'm a Vietnam Vet. When someone asked, "Did you ever kill anyone?" My reply was, "No, but I hurt someone's feelings once". Good luck in the contest.

Comment from humpwhistle
Why does everyone blame the cooks?
Very funny. Granddad has three ds.
And I think you need quotation marks for the dialogue.
Best of luck at the polls.
Peace, Lee

Thank you so much Lee. I have just googled grandad and it says 2 d's maybe it's the English spelling.
