“The Sketch” - a short story.

A guy walks in to a bar and sits next to an old man. Somethings oddly familiar about the old man. He thinks and thinks, he still cant figure it out. Even though this is surely going to bother him, he gives up.  But just then, like a rear-end collision, it hits him, its Pablo Picasso. He looks around the bar in amazement to share this moment with others but non to avail.  The guy spins back and exclaims “I love your work, man!” but Picasso doesn’t say a word, he just nods with gratitude. The guy tells Picasso he will pay him to draw a picture on a cocktail napkin. Picasso agrees, does his thing, clicks his pen, and hands the guy the sketch. Completely dead pan Picasso says, “One million dollars, please.”

“A million dollars?” says the guy. ” But It only took you 20 seconds, man!”

“I know,” said Picasso.”But it only took this man 50 years to learn how to draw that in 20 seconds.”
