I have a suspicion that #3 is one of the OSC books I haven't read and am saving for a rainy day.

Shepherd, Harold and Kumar Go to Whitecastle. I can't ignore a good reference when I see one.
6-word epics:
They won the Trojan War, eventually.
He found his way home, eventually.
He settled down in Italy, eventually.
They got kicked outta Eden, eventually.
He chopped her hair clean off.
He righted some wrongs in France.
He hunted the great white whale.
He stopped the world's motor, eventually.

He loved. She lost. They wed.
The swing. Smack. Going, Going. Gone.
If looks couldn't kill, she could.
He was a friendly psychopathic killer.
Blood, screams, terror... A great honeymoon.
Daryll demanded cash. He got lead.

Life unfair, death impartial.
Lonely boy, finds love, very complicated.
World ends, no one notices.
Sleeper awakens, looks around, falls asleep.
Government run by people, for persons.
Money murders decency, clocks everywhere applaud.
Extremests kill for God, God weeps.
(sorry, feeling a little dark this AM)
