A chapter in the book Snippets

Cat's Meow

by Brett Matthew West




Background
A book with each story in the book containing no more than 150 words each.
Veronica Johnson is the meanest snake that ever slithered in our little town. Because of her venomous ways everybody despises her and avoids her like the plague.

The Preacher's son Billy Taylor is a mighty precocious youngster if there ever was one. And, the boy's only fear is being late for supper.

Old Lady Johnson was skinny dipping down at the lake. And, unbeknown to her Billy, while munching down on a hotdog smothered with ketchup, snapped the proof on his cellphone's camera.

Upon noticing pictures were being taken it was too late for her to cover up. Billy spent the next two days telling his tale and showing everybody an eye full. Now the Old Bat is too embarrassed to show her face in town.

Instead of earning himself a well deserved trip to the woodshed for his actions Billy quickly became a hero.

Ain't that the cat's meow?




This story intentionally limited to 150 words.

For those of you not familiar with the Country expression "trip to the woodshed" it means corporal correction.

Cat's meow means a surprising result.









Thanks Cleo 85 for the use of your picture. It goes so nicely with my little story.
