Friday Flash 55.....



"And lets see what else you've done Mr. Haynes...
You bought your son fireworks"?

'Yes'.

"You've given him beer"?

'Yes'

"You bought his first tattoo...And a scary one at that"?

'Yes'

"And just why again do you think you deserve Heaven"?

'Well Sir, I've always taken my son fishing'.

"OHHH!!...In that case, ENTER!!!

.

Remember last week when I begged your help because I didn't know if I was gonna have Internet Access at the wedding week-end? Well tomorrow me, Reese, my friend Alex, and my dear friend Shep, are going to Au Gres Michigan to Wall-Eye fish for the Week-End. I'm almost absolutely sure that I'll be incommunicado till Sunday. Here is what I'm suggesting...If you come tell me that you've posted a Friday Flash 55, please at least visit the person that commented the one before you.
OK?....Do that for me?....Much obliged.!!

If you or anyone you know has posted 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 Great Week-End!!

(My Grandpa used to say.."Every day fishing, is an extra day in Heaven")

Peace...!!

FISH-ON!!!!

One of those male-bonding weekends, huh? Have fun. And please, try to stay IN the boat this time.

Lou said...

Wall eye...yummy. Hope you catch a mess of 'em.

So, the host is in absentia again. OK, we will try to be adults about it.

G-Man said...

Yes...but last week I did visit everyone...So There!!!!!

Why thank you Shere for dredging up that embarrassing episode from a few weeks back...:P

Mojo said...

Well ain't you just the jet-setter there G? Rock on buddy. Catch a few for me.

I settled things down a little this week... needed a break in the action before somebody (else) got seriously hurt.

(I just LOVE how many people are jumping on this little story telling bandwagon, lol.)

secret agent woman said...

Enjoy!

(This is a little silly, I know, but when I see a tattoo, I immediately flash forward in my mind imagining the person still sporting it at 80.)

Here's a bit of silliness to celebrate my 33rd wedding anniversary and the additional fact that it's the 2nd time around!

Hey, you're not going to Argentina, are you?

Hello....good luck fishing!!!! I used to go fishing all the time with my dad. It was a serious hobby for him. Fishing by boat, or on the shore...or fly fishing on a stream. You name it.

Oh, I always visit the ones that say they've posted a 55...all of 'em if I can. I love this whole concept, and the talented writers.

Donnetta said...

Hi, Galen! Good one. Really got a kick out of this one.

My time is limited on the computer right now because of using the library computer on just a few minutes. I'll catch up with the bloggers when I get back to OK. Have missed doing that while here in FL.

Mine is up! D
