I missed this earlier! What a crack up this is! I had to look at the name to be sure it was you. My friend, you have a comic side. I sure hope this won. My very best regardless. A winner in my eyes.
All my best to you and the family,
Sal :))

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
This is definitely a funny one although, perhaps, it shouldn't be, given the topic. The image is hilarious and your 50 word story a delight to read. I'm not sure whether Bubba existed. I rather thought it was Alfred Nobel? And, given the humour of the image, I would have been inclined to make more of the 'remains' rather than have it end as a verb. For example: by removing one word you could say: ...into the yard where his remains were scattered. But this is an eye-catching one and a great contender. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Actually, this was posted early on the 13th, several hours before the attempted assassination of President Trump. And you're right, Alfred Nobel did invent dynamite; but 'Alfred Nobel' doesn't exude the same level of humor as 'Bubba from Alabama.' I thought of making remains a noun, but figured it wouldn't escape the reader as a verb, coupled with the artwork. I appreciate your review and good luck wish.

This story was so cute! And it's very cleverly written. I love the double meanings and clever wording. It's hard to tell a good story in so few words, but you did a great job. Well done!

This was such a fun story to read, you did a great job with the prompt and word limitations, there was a home that blew up near Albany last year. Very sad end for the elderly couple.

The picture was perfect for the flash and of course, it made me laugh. Bubba should have studied a little more before he decided to blow up things.... especially for cash!

Yep, Bubba got a little careless and spread himself thin. Thank you, Carol for your review.
Comment from Rachelle Allen
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! As hilarious as the story itself it, the artwork you found put me over the top. This is so my sense of sicko humor, no two ways about it. I hope this takes you right to the Winner's Circle of the Laughter Flash contest, Mystery Writer. xoxo
