This is a story of a 16 year old boy from New Hampshire who won the 'World
Title' for the 'Shortest Essay Competition.'


He was awarded a full scholarship at the University of Harvard for his
imagination and humour ... Here's an example of absolute brilliance in
brevity.

Shortest Essay:

An English university creative writing class was asked to write a concise
essay with reference to all of the following elements:

1)Religion
2)Royalty
3)Sex
4)Mystery

The prize-winner wrote:

"My God," said the Queen, "I'm pregnant. I wonder who the father is."

"Jesus," exclaimed Prince, "why do woman want to bed me when I'm only 3ft tall?"

Not real royalty though.

Was Father Grigori Rasputin Tsarevich Alexei's father?

Shorter than the one in the OP (7 words!), and has the advantage of some basis in fact.

Not really, first he'd have had to have met Alexei's mother for the conception, instead of being invited to treat him for haemophilia 2 years after the boys birth

1)Religion
2)Royalty
3)Sex
4)Mystery

Holy 'King f**k What the....?

dead easy, where do I pick up my scholarship?
