BTW, what's the racing queen doing in the off-season now that
she's
out
of high school and not in college?

Slobber in the gym, eat good, tweak, tweak, tweak the bike,
took on two
new sponsors, and she is working with me as the lesion between the
Professional Athletes we represent (5 pro teams, along with
several top
ranked amateurs) on a project that is quickly gaining ground and
sponsors... stay tuned...

Slobber in the gym? Is that a modern age exercise regimen?

Speaking of "competitive", and you are always asking about our
competitiveness, how "competitive" were you in high school, a
"sport"
you suggested your parents drilled you in all of your life, and
you
certainly put a lot more time and effort into than my girl ever
did in
motocross... Among her peers last year in a National Amateur
event, she
took 8th place... how did you stack up against the competition
in High
School, I suppose you must have been Valedictorian or close
with all
the
time and resources your parents put into you... or did they fail
miserably.. So, how successful were your parents in the path
they chose
for you? Just doesn't make sense for someone like yourself who
must
have
been at the top of your game, to go to school in bum**** Kansas...
What's up with that?

In high school, I was on the swimming team for three years
(butterfly
and breaststroke) and was one of the editors of the school's
literary
magazine, and, of course, a contributor, and, with a friend,
founded and
ran a classics film club in New Haven that had well-attended
biweekly
screenings at a local "coffee house" that was nothing like
Starbucks.

So, I gather you didn't do as well in academia as my daughter in her
first year of her chosen profession.. thanks... and being on a team
means **** if you spent your time handing out towels....

Really? I have earned degrees from two major universities. Oh, and it
was the team manager who took care of the towels. I swam butterfly
and
breaststoke, individually and on relay teams.

Oh, and last year wasn't your kid's first year in motorbike racing.
You've been talking about it here for years and years. And 8th in
a race
is no big deal. What's her overall national standing? And since
she is a
pro, what have her racing purses amounted to? In my first year as a
professional writer for a major newspaper, my senior year of
college (I
was a full-time student and worked full time on the morning
newspaper),
I earned about $10,000 in salary, and this was back in the mid
1960's,
as a reporter. Not much these days, but back then, respectable.

8th in a national series is pretty good, first time out... how did you
rank in your graduating class. Top ten, if not, you got nothing to say
to my kid...

What was her net income?

That is none of your business...

As suspected....

She still has amateur status, according to Scotty, so her net cash
income from racing would be negligible.

She is not allowed to take cash... She is an Amateur.. Gifts,
Sponsorships, etc only..
