Friday Flash 55.....

.

.
I have a fraternity brother.
His name is Mike Smith.
In college we called him....Mondo!
He never laughed...He snickered.
He never glanced...He leered.
As a Senior, he dated a Freshman.
AND her 35 year old Mom...AT THE SAME TIME!!
You never knew where his hands had just been.
Good Ole Mondo....
.

.
I could do dozen's of posts on this guy, they don't
call you Mondo for nothing!!
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 nostalgic host from coast to coast...
Have a Kick Ass Week-End!!!

    Oh golly, that is GRIM, G-Man! :)

    I’ve managed to unthaw 55 words, at long last. Better read ‘em quick before they freeze up again! (It’s good to be back, G-Man.)

    Sounds a bit too much like the human's ex-husband's nickname for me to like him. She has posted a 55 here. http://razzamadazzle.wordpress.com/2011/02/24/fridays-flash-55-dragon-races/

    Hey, G-Man! I'm new to this 55 thingy, but my good buddy Brian (we called him "Brino" in college) turned me on to your weekly sharing. So, I'm in. Thanks!

    I don't know. He might have just been too big for his britches to get a name like Mondo.

    Here I am, after four whole days of being without electricity.
    I hate ice storms.

    Did Mondo eventually become a politician?

    Thanks for another Friday 55!

    My husband had a friend the called "Snake". Sounds like "Mondo" could have had a number of nicknames...

    My 55 is more delicious than a cuke, in my biased opinion:

    My mom took the family to the drive-in (I was 13, my little brother was 7 and baby sister was a toddler) and the feature was "Animal House" (I know - that explains a lot about me - LOL!)

    My 55 shares an old Chinese Proverb.

    A little late in getting around this morning. Some days are slow.

    Like your story - Mondo seems like an "interesting character". I expect most schools have someone like that!
