Friday Flash 55


Virgil was a strange fellow with very unusual pets.
His favorite pet was a centipede named Ralph!
One day he asked Ralph...
"Hey, you wanna grab a beer"?...No answer.
He asked again...
"Ralph, you wanna have a brewski"?...Silence.
"RAPLH"!!!!!!!
Ralph screamed back....
"I heard you the first time, I'm puttin my shoes on"!
.
.
If you or anyone you know has written a Friday 55, please come tell the G-Man. I will visit, read, enjoy, comment, then BOOK!!!
Have a Great Week-End everybody...
Peace..!!!

LOL. That Ralph's a scream. With my shoe habit, it's a good thing I'm not a centipede, huh?:-)

hahaa! Cute!

When I was little, my parents took my sister and I on a cave tour (Carlsbad Caverns, I think), and my sister kept freaking out and asking the tour guide about critters we might encounter, especially snakes and spiders. And the guide assured us that the ambient temperature inside the cavern was too low for cold-blooded creatures... so my sister points at the wall of the cave and asks, "Then what's that doing here?" It was a centipede about the size of Ralph.

Yay for 55s!

Hi Everybody!!!
I got up late today and I have a morning meeting that I must be very prompt for, so I will be answering all 55's when I get home.
Be patient, It'll get done today!

Were you at the game? Looks like the quarterbacks better just hand off more... Spread offense needs better blocking to give those guys some time..
