The Shortest (and Best) Fairy Tale Ever Written!!!

Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl "Will you marry me?" The girl said, "NO!"

And the guy lived happily ever after and went fishing, hunting and played golf a lot and drank beer whenever he wanted.

THE END

I knew there was something missing in my childhood,.....found it!!!!

Guess dad was afraid to tell that story for fear of further emasculation from Household 6.

Just kidding, mom likes fragmenting prairie dogs with her .22-250.

Thanks TS

Fairy Tale Hell-you are talking about my uncle. You justed needed to delete the part about fishing, add wine to the list, a Porche, skiing, and traveling Europe for six months out of every year.

LMAO TS. And they say fairy tales are just that...tales. I'm for believing this particular one, and when household six is not around, it shall bear repeating to my sons and grandsons.
