Monday 9/6/10 - "ARE YOU INSURED?" - Micro-Fiction Monday



MICRO-FICTION MONDAY



He set sail in a ship of fortune
only to find himself suddenly
under a wave of destruction.
Too late to ask:
ARE YOU PROPERLY INSURED?

Hi PG ~~ Love your story! The ship of fortune and wave of destruction are so creative. They make this a little poetic as well.
"INSURANCE? It never entered my mind."

Peeked at your profile out front a bit. I am also retired and licensed for a bike. Way back I rode a Vespa for about four years.
It was my 'freedom machine.' :)

No time to call his agent and take out a policy. Maybe his wife did it for him before she talked him into that voyage?

Love your puns! We have a game over at my place on Mondays that is based on a pun. You might want to come play. The times change weekly to assure everytime zone gets a fair chance. This Monday the post goes up at 10 p.m. PDST.
