When a coon is chasing you, you can't solve the problem with two sticks and a sparrow.


I think this statement is wrong. You can totally solve the problem with two sticks and a sparrow, if you're creative enough. Your mission? To write a story where, by using two sticks and a sparrow, the hero or heroine can solve the problem.

The winner gets the two sticks and the sparrow award.

Write the story and either post the story here or post the link to it here.

Good luck!

Hmm. I think I could solve some problems with just the two sticks.

By the way, the quote was made by me in the mod forum as a tip to all mods.

The sparrow is a bird; just a bird. It's not a necklace, it's not a crocodile, it's a bird. The sticks are sticks.

So entering this contest is attempting to prove the great Nate wrong? Tempting...

It's not a riddle... it's a tip. To us. Big Brother.

Don't question what it means... I'm not quite sure myself. XD

Razz

It'll end when I finally get my driver's license. Which might be a while, and it might not be. Hopefully in about two weeks? But, at least when I get my driver's license, I'll remember about this contest and look at it again!
