From there it's about not overdriving or underdriving...

And seat time. Fortunately, that is fun.

I evidently do better on the faster courses, and suck more when things get technical. I might be better off in a HP car, in other words... (I suspect that also means I'm slower when the quality of my driving matters more...)

wheee.

A few people said my lines are good for where I am. I just need to look ahead, tis where I fall behind when slaloms approach. Its easy to look ahead when walking the course; driving, it becomes a blur.

My left hip hurts the worse ..... but, I'm afraid if I get it replaced, the other hip will act up worse ..... and if I get it replaced ...... my knees will give out ..... and if I get them replaced ...... my back will give me problems......

By the time I get all of those parts fixed and recover ...... my cancer may return.

Hey, as they say "getting old is not for sissies" .......

I don't think I would have the stones to get a joint replaced. just F that.

I'm fairly certain that this thread is mostly a convention of those one or two in a crowd.

Short story: In the emergency room, mrs said that my last words to the doctor were "I don't give a shit how much morphine you've given me ..... GIVE ME SOME MORE!" ...... just before he dosed me again and I drifted off to happy land.

ya, I've had a couple of them colonoscopy things done.

The first one was done by my local vet (doctor) and that was the LAST one he did on me! I swear, he didn't know how to steer the damn thing and tried to drive it out my side. Yes, I was awake ......

The next one was done by a specialist and I was NOT awake ...... MUCH better.

What thread IS this ......
