Written for Esther’s “Can You Tell A Story In…..?”
#280 – exactly 30 words including the four
required prompts: ‘devious’, ‘brick’, ‘chicken’ and
‘tunnel’. The amazing graphic was created by
Kevin @ No Theme Thursday. This is my story.
Godfather, forgive me. Devious acts delayed me at the tunnel when a brick was thrown through my windshield. Thank God, your favorite chicken parmigiana, homemade by me, was not defiled.

Now that’s weird, I’m listening to Nino Rota’s wonderful Godfather theme, and up this pops!
Nice one, Nancy.

Nice one. I could never have paired that image with the four words in the prompt and the 30-word story you wrote. Kudos!

Maybe because you’re not a Siciliano, I’m guessing. Sorta comes with the territory, capiche?
Thanks much, Fan!
