    Vaguely fits the catergory I suppose:
    years ago -well before you were born - an old friend (long since crossed the Styx) and I had a tradition of sending each other a postcard during our annual holiday. Brevity was the key word.
    Mine was a motoring holiday - so I wrote: 'Piston broke...'
    He went sailing: 'Piston sunk....'
    Think about it in an English accent.
