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.









Oh, and her first year racing in an east coast series, 21 races, she

finished on the podium with an overall third in the division in a field

of 20 + girls who were regular racers of the division...... How did you

do in high school again??



I did great in high school, and college. So, what was her income?





None of your business.



Odd, I've looked and looked at pro motocross rankings and income over

the last couple of days, and there is no mention of her. Next you'll be

telling us she races under a pseudonym, except you don't know what it

means. Really, I am truly shocked that a parent would actually steer

their kid away from an education.


I'm sure you'd see it all the time in music and show business.
People trying to get rich off their kids natural talents.
