Rejuvenating the Legends

I posted this in the literature forum I'm obsessed with. The subject was "Write a Really Really Short Story in 50 Words or Less."


"I'm gonna build a really tall statue. A monument."
"Why?"
"Why not?"
"Because you're not an architect. Because you're broke. Because nobody cares."
"Shut up. It's my lifelong dream."
"I bet you just made it up now."
"So what if I did?"
"You're an idiot."
"It's gonna be Bob Saget."

I would add two words to that to make it a 50 word story:

"Bob Vila!"

Because, a)I don't think enough people make fun of Bob Vila, because, hey people, it's Bob Vila, hello! and b)When you said Bob Saget, my brain called up a picture of Bob Vila.

When I posted it on that forum, some guy asked me who Bob Saget was. He must have been British.
