Just take off the preamble if you are not going to enforce the 500-word limit. As to the article, yes it's funny and makes a good point. There was an elderly lady who lived on the QE2: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/hampshire/7719605.stm so the premise is not so farfetched. James,

For those of you who are critiquing this story, let's see you write something entertaining that makes you laugh and is related to the HIT world and current. And counting words, whose counting words if you like the story and it put a smile on your face. New rule: no one gets to beat down a "readers write" unless they have submitted their own content, even if it is more than 500 words. Come on everyone, this was funny, topical and accurate.

Previous entries include one that was over 2,000 words. Of 14 previous "Readers Write" entries chosen at random, only 5 were below 500 words.
