I Stumbled Upon (StumbleUpon, great thing) this site called One Sentence where people post a personal story in one sentence. It's amazing to just sit and read all these different snippets of people's stories. Very profound.

http://www.onesentence.org

I just submitted one under the name Jerome Turner. Should appear soon.

Has anyone on here already posted something?

One of my favs so far is this one:

"Had I known it would've been our last night together I wouldn't have cancelled our date."
I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    what a great idea.

    this one's pretty funny:

    "Probably Not Okay"
    The ticket stub to the movie we had not attended kept me from going to jail that night

    edit: some of these are so sad :( but they're all so beautiful, especially in the "most popular of all-time" section. a great way for people to speak about something that bothers them, even if it is anonymous.

    "My dad, always looking for a bargain, picked up an ugly, dying, needles-falling-off tree on Christmas Eve; five hours later, he was dead and the tree was still there."

    Wow..
