Harder

The engineers at my university held an annual “forty beers” contest, completion of which bestowed great prestige. The first few refreshing ales slid down easily. Nothing to it. The next few were a little harder. Then it became very challenging indeed. Don’t try it at home folks, it is not safe. The human body cannot accept such punishment. Alcohol aside, you can overdose and die from that much fluid.
     Which brings me to writing a hundred words a day. It’s harder than you’d think. If only they’d invent a Viagra for writers. But wait – they already have. It’s called “Readers”.

  2. That sounds like a lot. It wasn't lemonade.
