The weather and my expanded roll at work has been killing my ability to take off time during the week to play when the weather does cooperate. |

If you worked for yourself, you could figure out a way to take time off when you wanted, and on short notice. Over the next couple of days, I'll be booking a fishing trip in a much warmer latitude. No need to show up at anyone's office when I can email in the projects for which I get paid. |

I didn't want to break off the drivers side door handle, but I was able to get a back door loose with a slight bit of contant tugging. reached in and started the car then went back in the house for baout 15 minutes till the ice was melting on the windows fairly well. Drivers side opened reasonably easy then. It's now warming up a bit and the sroad slush is terrible! |

Our riding season stopped December first and we don't expect to see the track open mid April but two years ago the floods kept it closed until mid May! When I was younger it was "fun" to go to the gym, now it's just a chore. But we learned last year not to sit around during the off season. Scotty |

Scotty If I were in your shoes, with a dirt bike and all, I'd hop on it and ride down to Virginia to help old folks shovel their driveways. Yup, that's what I'd do alright. Only a wimp wouldn't do something like that. |
