I’m sure you’ve got good balance pal, but one of these days, you’re going to feed a sleeve into your front brake and bring two or three guys down with you. Asshat. Go to the back to do that, or if you insist on doing it where everyone can see how cool you are, ride along side.

Feel better, kid, and tell the Major to stay safe. I’ll pray for her.

thanks for the beth mason link. i like reading people’s thought on loss and such. her pop started out as a restaurant guy – and still had a good life. there’s hope for me then. i loved how she said she pees multiple times in the night. reminds me of my pre-proscar days.
