Georgie took the hairpin turn at fifty miles per hour, one for every year he had been on earth and flew off the mountainside. Yesterday he would have taken the same turn at seventy-five. At his birthday, his Mother told him to grow up or she would cut him off.
He considered options, regress to his previous tight-ass ways or continue to have fun. He chose money over joy, look what it got him, damn.

Bwahahaha! Oh, my, I have tears in my eyes! I love this.
Moms are such hard asses. 50? What’s her hurry?
xxx
*still giggling*
What is any of our hurry, you know? Why grow up? Why be responsible?
Crap on a stick if I know!!! I am constantly looking for less responsibility. 😛
Another one bites the dust 😦 *ouch*
Nicely flashed Val, but then I would like this one 😉

Yes Indeed 😉 lmao
You are almost as wicked
as me Valentine Logar 🙂

I wonder if Georgie was the guy we picked out of a thorn tree on a mountain roadway in India. I think India invented hairpin turns. lol
Nice Ian, but I think they are everywhere. I remember them in Europe as well. Those turns laid in wait for all.
Money over joy … seems we often fail in picking the right choice in that situation, don’t we?
All to often that choices seems to lead to misery.
First my eyes bulged in horror, then I laughed; I couldn’t help myself. He decides to take the high road (sort of) but it backfires. Delicious tale, Val, I mean, the poor guy… 😉
I thought it was somewhat twisted (get it?). Yes, he decided to take money over fun and off the mountain he flew.
Did I miss Fall Flash 8?
No you didn’t miss it, I scheduled it out of order. 😉
Good catch though.
He chose money over joy —- good for Georgie
Really he is somewhat shallow, now well he will be somewhat deep (6 foot assuming the find the pieces).
Brilliant Val. There appears to me no end to the parade of your awesomeness.
Thanks Tom, glad you enjoyed this one.
Very clever … 🙂
Those last words, never as inspiring as we might wish.
🙂
Smart move George.
Well if you require an entire decade to play out your mid-life crisis, something is sure to catch up.
