I got held up five times in the TAB. I wish your husband had held me up. This is well written, short, sharp and to the point. I hope he improved his technique

HI, Bill, I must have missed this because it was a blind contest entry, but it's a great one, and congratulations on winning the contest. What's a robber to do these days? He won't be taken seriously--just thought to be another concerned citizen. I like the way you got everything in so deftly. judi

Wow, a very powerful piece of writing! The cliffhanger at the end is completely unexpected and striking. Very well done and congratulations of winning the Humorous 50 Word Story competition!

Oh, I love this one. Robbing banks has never been easier, since everyone is wearing masks and gloves! If only people were depositing money. How are criminals during the virus, hmm?

Hello my friend

Your poem is really funny. It's a good entry for the 80 words humorous contest. Good word count. It's hard to write a complete story in a flash fiction. You did a great job.

Stay safe stay home save lives.

I love word play. Especially when it takes a minute to click in. It loses something if it take more than 5 minutes. Although that shouldn't be about the story. It is about the level of pun sensibility of the reader.
Well planned out.

Your contest entry is in good form, Mystery Author. With the virus, the gloves and the mask make sense. Apparently, this man was new to robbing banks. Having to return to the car for the note and gun must be the humorous part. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes. Respectfully, Jan
