Love It!
A wonderfully dry slug of humor with a twist of lemon!  The first page tossed some effective combinations at my noodle and the last line floored me...Can't wait for the chaser.

I'll echo what everyone else here has said
I too admire the economy of writing and the sharply-drawn characters. But I feel this could go on even more, and the writing could still be economical and tight. Brilliantly done, but I feel more like this is an appetizer than a meal. More, more!

A Little Goes a Long Way
This author did an excellent job of cramming the personalities and backgrounds of two characters into just two typed pages; and, moreover, adding a twist to the plot that both set apart the story and sent a message loud and strong. This is good writing.

What does what we "know" really matter?
A glimpse into the modern relationship, the modern divorce, and how we now use what a computer knows about us.  The heart of this story is the ending.
