Bud and Linda are a very nice couple. They are very devoted to each other having been married nearly forty-five years. They have a nice house and a dog. The lady likes to cook and putter in the yard. The man likes to play his guitar, pet his dog, pay his bills on the computer before they are due, and watch the History Channel. When the weather is nice, he goes out to his shop to play or mows the grass. It has been raining for three weeks straight. The man has been watching a Hitler Marathon on the History Channel for three days. Your challenge. Finish this story in ten words or less.
‘Lets play what we used to,’ Linda smiled.
‘Scrabble?’
‘Nooo’
