Day's...Month's...Years?
He had lost all track of time.
It WAS such a lovely place!
Mirrors on the ceiling, Pink Champagne on ice.
But over and over, each evening the same...
"Good Night" said the night man.
"We are programmed to receive. You can check out anytime you like...
But you can NEVER leave"!
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 Eagalitarian host from coast to coast...
Have a Kick Ass Week-End!!!

Ti has served up something romantic for this week.
Mine however, is a little more jaded in character. What, you're surprised?
Welcome to the Hotel Yahtzee! Good one G. Have a kick-ass weekend!
nice...great song. have listened to that one quite a few times in my day.
my 55 is up, though it may not be for everybody. give it a PG-13 rating...
I must not be old enough. I don't know that one. *smiles* I feel like I am 16 lately...
55 Flash Fiction Friday: The Realization
Theme Thursday: Box
Sizzlin'! Hot diggety damn you guys. This week is ending on a rockin' 55 note all the way around.
Nicely done. I laugh, but then I never checked in. You da man, G-man.
Here's mine.
"We are all just prisoners here of our own device." Such a lovely place.
My 55: Bees
I once spent a pleasant two-mile walk with a friend dissecting that song.
Mine is here.
Most Eagalitarian I'm equally impressed with your lyrical Flash 55
I'm up
Have a KAWE yourself
Jim
This is one of my favorite songs. Excellent 55 my friend. Loved it. Mine, for what it's worth, is up HERE. Have a great Friday :)
You shoulda been a song writer, G.:-)
Sherry...
No thanks, I just steal the lyrics!
hahahahahaha
hey i've been to that hotel, somewhere in california right? mine is up too!!
Hi...found my way over here from Brian's site, been following the 55 for a few weeks now and finally decided to try one too...it's up now. :)
Always love the musical references. My 55 will be HERE after midnight Pacific time.
Better than the song...!
Try THIS!
Nice! Now I'll have that song in my head for the remainder of the evening. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it's been awhile since I heard it on the radio.
Thanks for yet another Friday 55. :)
Here's mine.
My story is NOT YES MAN
My 55 is up here.
G-Man, that is one of my favorite song lines: "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave." There is a bar scene in the Jack Nicholson version of The Shining. I hear that line every time I see it. It's just so Hotel California.
Hey, you should write a song....
Wait a second! Hey.....
Mine is up, for a little spring!HERE

Good morning, G-Man! Just checking in... A very creative 55 that takes me WAY back!
I'm up too.
I like this one. Prisons come in all shapes and types. mine is up!
KB has often asked me to be apart of this but I have never found it my cup of tea.
I love KB so for one time only I offer you this!

Oh by the way I thought you did a great job......but according ta KB that is standard......
Now I have the song in my head.
Here's mine.
From one Eagle fan to another, Well done. After midnight California time, My 55 is here.
Duh, a Eagle song. Would like to say before my time but now older then Friday Flash 55.My 55 is here
One of my all-time fav songs.
I know what you mean, the champaign turns mundane.
When is a party not a party? when it's every night of the week.
Your amazing55 explains one of the mystery lessons 4all, but I had to hang out.
LKF~ Left.
Mine is about a connection; rather, my connection to what I call 'the caught in it' part of my youth. Thank you for hosting this great space! Just think! Eagalitarian and the bird!
my story's at this link. TQ

Great music here today.
You'll find mine here.
I have always thought that song is so sad... A ghost hotel that won't let you leave...
But then again if you have to be stuck somewhere, why not at a lovely hotel that serves you pink champagne? ;) I can imagine worse prisons...
My 55 this week is about enjoying being a follower...

You are very welcome to come stop by! Love/ Jo.
Amazing and unpredictable as always…I literally grew up listening to this…I don’t know was that good or bad
My 55 will be up shortly.
I love that song - very cleverly done G-man.
Mine's up.
First....love your Thursday portrait. That is a gesture we taught our kids at a very early age. LOLOLOLOL
Love your 55. But I must confess there will be a song going through my head all day now, thanks.
Here is my Flash 55 for the week.
Love the song! Great 55!
I finally got around to posting mine this morning. If you please, check it out:

The walking man has left the room.
Nice one, G-Man!
Mine is up!
Thought that sounded familiar.. a great piece..
Happy Friday.
Mines up.
A flashback 55! Awesome--my kinda story. I'm up.
Namaste Big Guy
hhmmm, that one seems familiar ;)
i'm finally up with my tongue firmly in cheek.
Nice to have a little Eagles to start a Friday morning. Trying this for the first time. I hope I did it right.
I always wondered what that hotel looked like!! Thanks G-Man. Mine is up.
I guess an Eagle's soundtrack for today isn't so bad. :)
Mine's up. Now will someone kindly tell me how to place a proper link HERE to take you there faster?
Takin the easy way out this Friday G? :D Ah, a walk down memory lane...I just might have to pull out an eagles cd and listen to it this weekend!
Love the picture.
Love the song.
Love your 55.
My cold is finally better and my mind is back so my 55 just went up.
Have a glorious weekend. It is beautiful here right now.
PG
Wow.. really scary!
No more pink champagne for me!
Once again, you ROCK IT, YOUR WAY!
I am so late..
Hope you like it?
SAY WHAT?
Happy Friday!
hugs

You know, it's only just 12.00am in Australia...you guys beat me every time. And you start posting way before your Friday... :))
That seems like a rather disturbing place to stay...think i would avoid taking a room there G-Daddy. Have the best weekend and have some fun.
Eaton.
I wouldn't mind driving around in circles in that car.
Flash 55 - A Very Happy Easter

I put my 55 up,
it is not easy to do...
thank you for the awesome music,
Happy Friday!
I've always wanted to have a lot of pretty, pretty boys that I call friends. :)
Thank you so much. Love The Eagles and the song. We had a chance to visit the hotel a few years ago in Todos Santos. Not really the same place as in the song, but still pretty cool to have the match books!
