Friday Flash 55.....



The deputy returned with my license, registration, insurance...
AND a speeding ticket!
My first EVER!
He just wouldn't believe me...The car was haunted!
(Turns on the radio)
"Gonna write me up...125.
Post my picture..WANTED:Dead or Alive.
Take my license..All that jive.
I CAN'T DRIVE...55!"
(Japanese voice)
'So Sorry'
VRoooooooooooooom!!!




If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55,
Please come tell The G-Man.
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment...Then BOOK!!!
So from the most gracious host from coast to coast...
Have a Kick Ass Week-End!!!

SandyCarlson said...

Haunted is as haunted does. So find the haunter, Mr. Policeman!

Sure did enjoy that!

Maybe I'mhere.

Susan at Stony River said...

What a great song LOL but I hope the 55 wasn't a true story for you!

You CAN'T drive 55 on the highways these days, you'll get killed for going too slow!

Happy Friday Galen -- Mine's up here.

One Prayer Girl said...

Well, I see your 55 is up and I love it. The only speeding ticket I have ever gotten (to date - I speed a lot) was for doing maybe 35-40 in a 25 mph school zone....not even near 55.

Well, you showed me yours so now I'll show you mine. :) My 55 is going up now.

LOL! You gotta love this 55 coming from a Chevy man.:)

Mojo said...

Your first EVER?? Maaaaan... you're good!

I'm not especially briliant in this this week's entry. But as always, Sandy's Sandy's brilliant enough for two. She's the real deal.

Sherry...

You Got It!

steveroni said...

VRooooooooooooooooooooooom!!! Sounds like my scooter at 95 mph...

Hopefully while you're in jail, someone can post your 55's they are SO good!

Like the song--my speakers must be not working--or maybe my listeners?

So I'll get to see Doctor PC, or doctor ENT. Maybe I'll just see BOTH!

Was that 55 words? I'll be dam--darned!

Unknown said...

The car was haunted? Indeed.
I really like it!

Mine is up WHEN WILL IT END?

Happy 55!

You deserve a FANTABULOUS weekend!

55? So sorry, even the speed limit is at least 60. :P

Mine will go live at midnight Pacific time. :)

Janna said...

When I was younger I had a red car.
It IS totally true that cops target red cars.
When I had that car, I got so many tickets I almost lost my license.
When I got rid of the car and switched to a different color, the tickets mysteriously ceased.
Hmmmmm!!!

Thanks for another Friday 55!
My own is posted right here.

Ms.Daisy said...

I was a very young driver when I first was stopped but I cried and the officer didn't quite know what to do with me so he let me go! I couldn't get away with that now, though!) My first try with 55 - see me at: http://onedaisychain.blogspot.com

Monkey Man said...

Classic. My 55 will be HERE after midnight Pacific time.

clean and crazy said...

Maha said...

I'm a couple of years away from having a license and i just can't wait!!
Mine is up so come and check it out

järnebrand said...

Funny. :) You can't drive 55, you say? Ha! I never got a ticket. I am driving way too safe in my black Volvo for any traffic police officers taking any interest in me whatsoever... :) (I am such a boring person that way).
I posted a 55 too, a poem about feeling strong, or wanting to feel strong.

Peace and love/ Jo.

Vodka Logic said...

A concept I know all too well. I think I have bought a cop car or two...

anthonynorth said...

Now that's the way to get away :-)
You'll find mine here.

Hootin Anni said...

This is great...what I can't understand is why all these car owners are NOT just turning off the ignitions to shut the boogers down!!

Here's Mine...Spring Break 2010
[scroll down below Show n Tell as always]

Have a great weekend.

Akelamalu said...

g-man said...

VANESSA!!!!!!!!
Yes Yes Yes Yes!!!!!
You get it too!!!!!!!
One of the very few....Thanks!!

Maha said...

Oh gee, now I'm totally embarrassed *blush* that was my theme thursday not my 55 and i thought it was published but obviously something went wrong and i've just discovered that, so it is REALLY there now and i'd be real happy if you come and check ...again *another blush*

Jessie said...

a haunted Toyota!!! loved it! lol

my first ticket was going down a back road trying to get my daughter to school on time -- as usual she was running late. i was SO *issed when the state trooper pulled up behind me with his lights.

oh...mine's up.

smiles,

lime said...

lol, did the canevers put yo uup to this?

clever!

mine is up.

Eaton Bennett aka Berenice Albrecht said...

I've had more than one ticket for speeding. :( But I can't remember my first one. That sounds like I've had hundreds lol, I haven't, really I haven't.

Have a wonderful weekend, G-Daddy. :))

Yvonne Osborne said...

I love driving fast. It's exhilirating and I've had plenty of tickets but never an accident so what does that tell you? Coppers need to concentrate on those who drive too slow in the fast lane!!!

Love the Toyota sign!

Mine is up where it usually is.

Cheers!

hope said...

Ah, the need for speed. :)

I'm up. Have a fun weekend!

Susan said...

Tickets! UGH!! I am up with a rhymer! Enjoyed yours!!
Have a Wicked Good Weekend!

Ed & Jeanne said...

Ha! Vroom, indeed. I've been there...I too can't drive 55...

Oh, and if you've ever had siblings, you will probably relate to my 55 Here

Mona said...

I realized that in America they give tickets for silly reasons. All the time they keep apologizing for the 'catch 22' situation while they write a ticket. Then you can go contesting your case in the court, if you have the breath and the time :)

In India, no ticket. Take my driving licence & I have ten more in my kitty. ( not personally)

Mona said...

PS. Long live Chevrolet! ;)

Akannie said...

Hey, G-Daddy....I can't drive 55 either...oh well. )(PS--I got my first [and only--knock wood] speeding ticket at about 43....)


I'm up...in time, on the money, and with bells on!


Come on by!!

Oh! Now I get it! Took Nessa to point the way for me. "I'll never drive that car again."

Mona said...

Hey, I forgot to book! I am up!

Head Cookie said...

I have yet to get a ticket I have had warnings though. You should of given the pouty lip G lol. Well my 55 is up and I am so sorry I took a few weeks off. Hugs to you and TGIF

secret agent woman said...

I used to rack up speeding tickets.

PattiKen said...

I bet Toyota feels like they are haunted, haunted by shortcuts and bad decisions.

Love your 55.

Mine is up here.

Hope this qualifies: THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT

Mona said...

and our mutual friend was saying the other day on facebook :

"Dan Balogh
hasn't yet experienced the sudden acceleration problem with his Toyota. But he swears the damned thing entered the house when he was showering, raided the freezer, and ate the last of his chocolate peanut butter ice cream! The nerve of that car"
