An appeal to literary minds

Post by Coriolanus »

Hemingway (drunkard hero, etc.) won money on a bet that he could write the world's shortest short story. He did so in six words: "For sale: Baby shoes, Never worn." Let's see if we can beat him at his own game. Five words or less. Must be booze-related.
