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!!!

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  15. 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!

  16. The car was haunted? Indeed.

  21. 55? So sorry, even the speed limit is at least 60. :P

  22. 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.

  23. 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

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

  27. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  37. 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,

    ReplyDelete
  38. lol, did the canevers put yo uup to this?

    ReplyDelete
  39. 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. :))

    ReplyDelete
  40. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Ah, the need for speed. :)

    I'm up. Have a fun weekend!

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

    ReplyDelete
  43. 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

    ReplyDelete
  44. 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)

    ReplyDelete
  45. 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!!

    "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"
