Tina Wainscott had a contest earlier this year for "the MOST SHOCKING first line (Something fun and suspenseful). "

Now, I'm not saying to lift someone else's first line, but doesn't Casey Becher's entry, set your mind popping with possibilities?

As I typed up the details in my online auction, I thought to myself, "Now, what would be the most appropriate font for 'Nice Casket - Hardly Used?'"

How about DJ's

The happiest day of my life was the day I ran into Mark's body in the morgue?

Or DS's

When I woke up from death, I was living in eternity but what shocked me more was that God had my face and spoke in my voice.

There's muy mucho nudges on the list of finalists on Wainscott's site.

I have more creativity nudges over on ye grande olde swarme of links.
