Six Word Memoirs

I bought a cool book in Key West in May titled "Not Quite What I Was Planning" featuring hundreds of six-word memoirs [perhaps the coolest one of which provides the title of the book]. Coincidentally the origin of the book evidently lies with Hemingway. Legend has it that Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.”
