This is awesome. Although I didn't mean we should specifically try to use less than ten words. Just as short as you can make it. A sentence or two. But be free!
We could do with a signifier that the story has begun. I read Tommy's last post as a story at first.

This day is just going to roll on by, I tell you.

It wasn't a story but going by what Papa Hemingway said, maybe it was!

Nope. Is that a film?

The Karate Kid was on TV last night. I held him as he wept. It's all in the past, I said. Roofing is a noble profession, Ralph.

I never really liked The Smiths, but they were her favourites. Now I have all these records lying around.

They buried his typewriter too.
EDIT: What odd timing.
